I know I have been derelict in my duty to post, but I do have a good excuse this time. I came down with shingles a week ago and it really knocked me out. I am happy to say that I caught it early and was put on antiviral meds, plus I was directed to a new cream that has done wonders on the healing of the rashes. I am now on the mend, and hope to make more of an effort to post. Not that you aren't already inundated with things to see online, but I hope I can bring some beauty into your lives with my paintngs.

I am taking an online class with the wonderful Dreama Tolle Perry, and our assignment for this week was a blue chair in France with geraniums growing from it. Well, it turns out that I was right there in that place taking photos with Dreama as part of my France workshop in 2014. So I chose to paint from my own photo, which is quite different from the one the class painted. If you can possibly swing it, I HIGHLY recommend taking Dreama's online course which will open again in September. I have taken 13 days painting with Dreama in person, and I must say that this course is an even better experience than the live workshops. You get to see everything she does close up, but more than that, Dreama has opened up her heart by adding so much more besides painting, going into attitude, perseverance and painting with JOY. Go to her website and take a look.

Enjoy!

  1. How wonderful that you were there in the lavender fields with Dreama and were able to take this beautiful photograph! Your painting is GORGEOUS!

    I am loving Dreama's class too. So much more than painting but, oh, the painting is soooo good! This class is my first time with oils and I'm having fun (and pushing through the struggles and self-doubt and reminding myself that it's always good to try something new and stretch my comfort zone).

    I'm definitely keeping my eyes open for Dreama's online painting class part 2 which she alluded to in this most recent week's preview of the week to come. Yay!
