One Down, Nine to Go

….this painting took an unexpected turn

I knew that the painting that I started two days ago needed some changes but it changed drastically and now it’s almost unrecognizable from the original. I’m actually very happy with it and it will probably end up in my solo show at the end of June.

Mindful Mark Making – Day 3

….really enjoying this very zen-like exercise of slow drawing

I’m a follower of Amy Maricle at Mindful Art Studio, amy@mindfulstudio.com. Every week she hosts a free workshop on slow drawing. I love the exercises and find that the mark making comes in handy with my paintings. Here are three exercises that I finished late last night.
