ooo blog feature :)

i have a rather exciting blog feature over at juliette crane's blog as part of her creative sugar series

go take a peek!

I am currently getting my act together ....well trying to!!! and making a couple of new water colour classes for the trodden path group

i had forgotten how much i like working in watercolour, i love its unpredictability and the way it can be free and liberating. Many people get too tight and fight against what it wants to do, i find if you let it do what it wants and control what it wants to do you can get some wonderful things happening............. its just beautiful.

29 faces...faces 15 and 16

NO MORE OF THAT

 

id also like to let you know about my class  OUT OF REACH AND A BOOK OF FACES on Jane DesRosier ning site  The Trodden Path, its a great site with lots of free classes and info, come over and join in all the fun

COME AND BE INSPIRED TO PAINT FACES FROM YOUR IMAGINATION. I WILL GUIDE YOU THROUGH AN INITIAL PAINTING THEN I WILL HELP YOU TO CREATE A SIMPLE BOOK FILLED WITH FACES FROM YOUR OWN IMAGINATION WE WILL THEN PRODUCE A FINAL PAINTING INSPIRED BY THE BOOK OF FACES.

NEW FACES 4,5,6,7,8 & 9

i re opened my etsy shop to sell prints of my work....i opened my shop in 2005!!! gosh! then i never really did much with it so i thought i would put it to use, you will find prints of my work for sale there....i'm just in the motions of adding prints, if you would like i print of one of my paintings and you don't see it there then i would be happy to add it!

well when i finally stopped lazing in the sun....... i got round to starting painting!
