My WORD for 2019 is "Create".
January 1st, 2019 I made a New Years promise - Paint at least 5 days a week!
January is over and we're starting a new month!  I kept my promise!!!!!
Not only did I paint most days, I have been going to classes at the Beach Art Center.  It's amazing how going to class can motivate you.
I joined, again, the Miniature Art Society of Florida, they're having the annual show in Tarpon Springs at Leepa Rattner, closed on Monday.

Thank you Mary for a wonderful class tonight. Could you please supply a list of good materials to purchase so that I can practice? I hope to be able to attend you Wednesday class next week.
Once again thank you for a wonderful experience.
Sincerely,

Cherries Squared - Day 11

Image
12" x 12" Oil on Canvas SOLD The challenge today was to paint RED ! How many reds in the paint world are there! Well I think a lot!!!!! I had at least 6 tubes out ........the transparent  of the skin was the hardest to get.....I love the yummy reds against the cools of the table cloth.  I added a little light green, but it didn't show up in the photograph.  This painting is much better than the picture.... you can't see the impressionist colors juxtapose together.   Anyone doing the challenge can't help but get better......what fun!  Thanks Leslie!

All I can say is WOW! David A. Leffel did a demo at Longboat Key Art Center, this was the third day of his workshop.......couldn't afford it, but just couldn't miss seeing the master at work. It was wonderful, he is the best! Also I purchased his book (out of print from 2003) from Gallery M in Sarasota, they had one of his paintings. So I got it signed and he was just a gem......thanked me for coming and purchasing his book. I've had the opportunity to see several pieces in Galleries out west and let me tell you they are just awesome!!! This has made my year!!!
