Some small news...

I recently was inspired to paint more rocks, by this blog zephyrcatart.wordpress.com, (her work is truly amazing) and Saturday I was spending the day with my sister at a house she was watching and we went to the Klutina river and took a hike at a BEAUTIFUL spot. I will definitively go there again! It is the very place for a photo shoot. I took the opportunity to get some nice smooth painting rocks while there, (I really had to restrain myself from not taking ALL the rocks on the shore and filling Hannah's car trunk up) it was great, I just love looking for rocks to paint, sometimes it can get very hard to tear my eyes of the ground.

 Other news....

I never did win first, second, or third place, or even honorable mention in both of the contests that I had entered a while ago.

I still have that Caribou painting to do, I'm hoping to start it soon, and the bear was a silly idea, scratch that.

I don't know how busy I will get or how often I will be able to work in my studio but I am going to train for a job soon. So, that's going to keep me busy. 

Yup. 

This spring has been very slow, but today was the first day of 60 degrees! I'm so excited for summer. I'm sure everyone is. Who wouldn't be?

New releases from my studio. At last.



I am finally finished...


 
...with this painting. *pant*


I did it all from my head. It was very experiential and very good practice for me. I like bears, I paint them way to often. :)


Lady bug rocks! I did these two today, and there's more to come.

Tell me what you think!
