Have you ever heard the Italian phrase

“Il Dolce Far Niente”?

No, it isn’t food, it doesn’t have anything to do with food, cooking or eating.

It also doesn’t have anything to do with painting.

So, you ask, what does it have to do with my blog?

That is easy to answer…..it doesn’t have anything to do with it.

You see, “Il Dolce Far Niente” simply means

the “Sweet Doing of Nothing.”

That is exactly what I am going to do for the next few weeks, nothing!

Nothing with my blog, that is.

I will be doing plenty of painting at the studio.

So, goodbye for now, I will return in a week or two, maybe three.

But for now, do me a favor and put a big circle around

September 16th!

There will be big celebration and opening of the

Somerset Ridge Painter's

show at the Tortoise Gallery!

ahhhhh....now for some

 Il Dolce Far Niente!
