Bonnie Pleasant From The State of Washington is our Grand Prize Winner. She wasn’t home when I called, so I can’t tell you what painting she chose. I’ll do so after she contacts me.
Thanks to all who participated. Over the next couple of days we’ll be busy duplicating, testing, packing and shipping.

I’ve been busy the past couple of weeks putting together these four new paintings which will also be on the YouCanPaintClub.com site in about a week. I realized during this week that I have never made film on painting weighing this little. So I’m really jazzed right now. Read the rest of this entry »
I’ve had a lot of requests to share the diet I’ve been on. Some folks have indicated they’d like to go on the same diet, but without the surgery. It will take will power, but here it is …………..
From Feb to the operation I ate 3 meals and 3 snacks dailly.
The snacks consisted of:
1. Hummus with whole wheat crackers or melba toast.
2. Salad
3. Low-fat, sugar free gelatin or plain yogurt (1/4 cp) with nuts (1 tbls) or one medium fruit. Read the rest of this entry »
On Wed. evening we’ll be having a drawing to see which lucky purchaser will receive the painting of their choice…
If you havn’t heard the news yet ….
I’ve received countless emails, cards and calls asking how I’m doing and wishing well. Many have asked to see a photo and others are asking exactly what is my weight loss program. And then many of you have undergone the same procedure I have and have been a tremendous blessing to me in making a decision for the operation and throughout my recovery. I have four more weeks of recovery.
In the words of one who wrote me this past week, “It’s the scariest, best decision I’ve ever made.”
I think the results speak for themselves. What do you think?
After one year of this weight loss program which did involve surgery 3 weeks ago, I am now 80 pounds less. So tomorrow in my announcement of the first four videos we did earlier this week, we’re going to reveal a photo of me that shows the progress. I still have 130 pounds to go.
Stay tuned.
I thought I’d write and let everyone know how I’m doing.
The operation was a huge success. Thanks for all your well wishes and prayers and support. I sure felt the love from everyone.
Yesterday marks two weeks since the operation. I now weigh 25 pounds lighter than that fateful morning.
The recovery is going well. I’ve been mostly resting and following doctor’s orders. My diet is nothing to write home about. I have a protein drink 3 times daily with up to 8 ounces an hour of clear liquids. Its so hard for me not to delve back into full activities. But I’ve relaxed and said that it is important to recover first.
I’m now back at it for two hours a day. So each evening this week, we’ll be filming. Last night we filmed a beautiful floral painting, Nature’s Bouquet with lots of wildflowers, daisies, poppies and so forth. I just love florals. Read the rest of this entry »
To my American friends…
I just got back home from church and visiting friends from California and am now resting for our town’s Independence Day fireworks later this evening. It will be a quiet afternoon as my wife has to work today. I’ll have my liquid lunch and dinner and then my son and his family will pick me up for the fireworks.
Living in Massachusetts, the birth of our nation draws millions of people annually to vacation here, visit Plymouth Rock, Salem, and of course Boston, where essentially the ‘fight’ began. The first war casualty suffered was in the Boston area, the first military engagement and of course, the legendary ride of Paul Revere. Read the rest of this entry »
Just wanted to let all of you know that Darrell’s operation went well and he is doing fine. When he gets home I’m sure he will tell you all about it.
Thanks to all of you who sent kind wishes.
Until then we ask that you please refrain from making any phone calls to Darrell until Monday.
Thank you.
