….I’m not committing to doing the art each day but today’s lessons intrigued me and helped me warm up for my next painting
Today’s lessons were both focused on creating art around a blob of colour. Koosje Koene gave the first lesson using watercolour and Mike Lowery used markers. Both were fun to do and got me ready to paint on my next painting for my solo show in May.
…I’m thoroughly enjoying this ‘slow’ process of mark making
Thanks to Amy Maricle for her artistic guidance.
…slowly getting back to drawing and painting
After months of recovery from pneumonia and then COVID, my husband is slowly getting back to his drawing table. So happy to see Monster Monday return.
…thanks to Amy Maricle for getting my hands moving again
I continue to fill up my little handmade art journal with slow drawing mark making. Sometimes I start with splotches of watercolour or I glue down some interesting pieces of collage or previous squares of slow drawing exercises. I’m enjoying the process and hope to fill in my journal in the next couple of weeks.
…what started out as a drawing for this year’s Christmas Card turned into a Monster Monday
I’m so happy that my husband resurrected Monster Mondays. Not sure if this one has a name but he sure is pretty.
…when there’s no TV you have time to read and make art
For this trip I brought one novel (close to 600 pages) and a small pad of paper, watercolours and a few pens.
Very relaxing and it’s gearing me up to paint when I get home.

Last weekend we were worried that Tonguely might get into some more trouble at College Royal at the University of Guelph. Well we were right. After making a few new friends he managed to go joy riding in a tractor.
