A painting a week? hmmmm.....

Note me


I've been bitten by the creative bug since joining the water colour workshop. No I haven't fallen in love with the medium but I've learnt to appreciate it a bit more. I still think it's frustrating. Anyways...I've been doing some acrylic paitnings and that medium is one I have no problems professing my love for.

I've also started posting som WIPs in the scrap book section so feel free to take look! I'm feeling so motivated at the moment that I've decided I'll try to complete a painting a week and push myself to work on larger sized canvas: 20"x 24" and bigger. We'll see what happens with that....

Hey Kat. Thanks for the kind words :) My art supplies have arrived and I'm reacquainting myself with everything. It's taking a while but I'm getting there...

Every now and then I let them paint, they thoroughly enjoy it! Skye's going to start Primary school and Zane is starting pre school next month.

I try to do more toned down work and it just ends up looking a mess. Monochromatic or colourful seems to work best for me right now. I'm still trying to find middle ground :)
