Way overdue!

Well.....it has been years since I tried to blog. Have you ever wondered what your friends & fans want to know about you or your work? I have. So with this new blog, I am asking......what do you want to know? I hope that this will help me jump start this blogging thingy! Here are some whimsical works that I enjoyed painting as they are out of my norm. Enjoy. And please respond to my question. Thanks & have a blessed day/evening!

Back to School

I had the greatest time today.  I got to visit my grandson, Jacob's VPK class and share my art.  We learned color mixing.  Also we learned the difference between abstract, impressionistic, and representational paintings!

Then we painted two paintings!  I say "we" because they were so helpful in telling me what the paintings needed as they progressed!

They are just like little sponges.....they absorbed everything very quickly and like "memory foam" they didn't forget!   If I made a mistake, they quickly told me!

If you get a chance to share with children (who,by the way, are not critical at all) by all means do so. I think I enjoyed it more than them!

And in one of the pictures I see little Savannah's (granddaughter/future artist) head, as she had moved to the "head of the class"!

One of the teachers took these pics...from across the room.  I promise there were 18 kids and two teachers in the classroom!






Inspirations

 Living on a barrier island, inspiration is abundant.  Here are some of the things that inspire me to paint.  What inspires you to paint, write, sculpt, compose...?
