"Luck? I don't know anything about luck. I've never banked on it and I'm afraid of people who do. Luck to me is something else: hard work — and realizing what is opportunity and what isn't."
– Lucille Ball

Jenny Lake Plein Air
4" x 6" Watercolor on
Indian Village Handmade Paper
What a beautiful place! I walked in to this spot and climbed on a rock and began my first plein air painting.... ever! I usually paint from photos, so this was an amazing experience.
I left Idaho on Friday morning and spent the day in The Grand Teton National Park and in Jackson Hole. I saw some incredible art in Jackson!
Saturday, I did a little more painting, then headed to the airport for my noon flight. I walked in the door to my house after midnight! What a day! It's good to be home to my honey!
This is a page from my 5" x 8" travel journal, that I did on the flight to Minneapolis.
About Lucille Ball
Lucille Ball, the beloved redheaded comedian, was born in 1911 in New York. She enrolled in
drama school — where she was told she had no acting talent, so she became a model. That career led to her discovery by Hollywood. Ball and her bandleader husband,
Desi Arnaz, pitched a sitcom to CBS, which refused it, but they went on the road with it as a
vaudeville act. The act — about a ditzy housewife and her bandleader husband — was a success, as was the ensuing TV show,
I Love Lucy. The show made TV history when Lucy's sitcom character was pregnant on the air. She died in 1989.
