Went to Diana Trout's Studio!

 On Saturday, I had a great art adventure with my friend, Jill. We took an all day watercolor flower class from the talented, Diana Trout, at her studio!  I had  a lot of fun and learned some great techniques that I'm sure I will use again and again.  Diana supplied everything - including lunch! We had a really nice group that shared their talents and questions. Jill and I went to eat at a local tavern afterwards and it was nice to catch up with her. It was an unforgettable day - including the snow that fell all day... in the second week of April!

Thanks, Diana!

                                   I'm new to watercolors and will need to practice.

                                               Some techniques that I learned.

                                  I like how this turned out!

  

                    Still need to add pen to this one and background 

                                      
                                                  Fun at our table!
                            

                                

Large Canvas

A new larger canvas that I just started. I'm curious to know where this is headed.

work in progress

This is a 6x6 mixed media collage. I don't know where this is going. I tried a stencil but didn't really like it. I think this one will sit awhile until I can think of something  - it needs words...and more.

Enjoy The Journey

Happy Valentine's Day!

 I am art journaling today and having fun. Thought I would paint myself some flowers:

Mixed Media Collage Painted Canvas - Be Brave

This is a 12x16 canvas I completed awhile ago - so many layers. I just love butterflies! Be Brave refers to me trying new techniques and sharing my art.
