Painting from the 90's

In 1999 I enjoyed a very productive week painting at "Rain's" Tucson home. I was just getting into the flow after a dry period of researching my roots. I was very happy about returning to Tucson where I had painted the desert during the late 60's. (photo by Rain)

Although I didn't mention it in my artists statements or even gave it much weight in my own paintings, the dragon did appear in a number of my paintings in the 90's. "Falling Star" came from sketching at Ramat Hanodiv Gardens near Zichron Yaacov. I have now renamed it to "Yellow Camel Dragon, Mustard and Falling Star".
