A New Blog, A New Direction


Gulp...this is the first post on my new blog and look what I have to show for it. I worked on this for about an hour and then gave up. At least I'm cheered by the fact that this is so awful that it will be easy to improve from this point. In a few months my work will look so much better than this! Practice makes perfect. I will let that be my mantra as I get used to having a brush in my hand again.

As I begin painting again, the plan is to use a limited palette. That simplifies color choices and gives harmony to the painting. Don't for a minute think I'm giving up polymer! No, no. How could I? Hopefully it will be incorporated into my new art. We will  have to see where that goes.

Beginning January 2 I will paint daily for thirty days and post my work here and at Leslie Saeta's site. She has spearheaded this movement and I believe there are over one hundred and fifty participants so far. Check out her blog and look at the roster of artists already signed up. It should be an exciting month! Please leave your comments. I will appreciate your time and interest.
