Gratitude!!!!! Love seeing what people do with my Art…..Thanks Renee Scott!!!!! Grateful beyond words!!!!!!

Christmas trees….I have always had a passion for Christmas trees…..I also love little art!!!!! For the past 25 years it has been “PAINT BIG”…..I have had more fun painting small this year and beyond just Christmas trees…this is the remaining inventory of the trees…..thankful to share the Christmas spirit with art!!!!!!

I am having so much fun working in various mediums….miniatures…small works….

I am currently taking an online workshop with Ardith Goodwin….this is the project …..notes – Timed 4 min then the two minute …..very flowing…not my colors usually but what if? And I tend to be geometric and this is all curvilinear …. and I like the line….I decided that is one of my favorite things about winter is nature is more linear…to me anyway…..let’s go…..

The journey….I am a process painter….I love the process…the journey….in 2018 I studied with some amazing artists that have put sooooo much of the pizazz and excitement back in my heART……

This is from working with Ardith Goodwin – Distortion…….it was beyond just reshaping a figure….it was about expressing emotion with line shape etc….I have loved every minute and enjoying the journey …. these works in the “distortion group” will be at upcoming shows…..

“Art without limits!!!”
