Tall Ship

Chris completed this painting of the SSV Oliver Hazard Perry which sails out of Newport, Rhode Island.

Rhode Island Progress

I have completed this painting of a sparrow, and added it to the Rhode Island mandala. I have added the state motto which is simply hope, and the nickname of The Ocean State. Just two more rings to go. We have already started on Connecticut, which will complete New England.

We have a good start on the Rhode Island mandala. The inner circles are completed, and the elements around the center are finished images which will be added. We have only a few paintings left for this state.

Massachusetts Video

We now have the Massachusetts video. Special thanks to Daniel ML for the beautiful musical composition and performance.

Rhode Island Continued

We continue to work on the Rhode Island design with a view to completing the New England collection. Just Connecticut left. Shown are the Stripped Bass, Beaver, Canada Goose, Quahuag Clam, American Crow, Otter, Least Sandpiper, New England Cottontail Rabbit, Singer representing the Newport Folk Festival, and a daysailer sailboat.

Massachusetts Mandala

We have completed the Massachusetts mandala. Five of us worked on it. We are nearing completion of the animation for the accompanying video.

Rhode Island

We are near completion of the Massachusetts mandala and animation, but we have the start of the Rhode Island design. The Rhode Island Red Hen is the official state bird, and the flower is the violet.
