Once Upon a Time in Provence Class and other paintings

  Almost 2 months have gone by without posting and I don't even know if anyone is reading them.I have been doing the French Course with Dreama Tolle Perry.  It is so much more than demos.

 A lot has happened in the two months, I was let go from my job, as they changed the job description to include heavy labor. It was a real disappointment. I have been doing some volunteer work at the Mansfield Art Center, working on a commission, and working on some paintings.

 I am still working on the Once Upon a Time in Provence  and will post those paintings. I have quite a few to go but have been doing some of my own also. Dreama does 1-2 demos in each of the 6 modules and then posts some extra photos that we can do our own work. I have loved this course and hope to do her Italian one later. The technique is to put a transparent layer down as a block in, Then sketch with a tool and then the opaque layer leaving some of the transparent layer with these beautiful bright colors!

 This was a bonus painting from a picture of Dreama's

My garden and lawn are cleaned up and it will be planting and mowing next and I hope more plein air painting and in  painting in my studio. I am learning so much so want to put that learning to good use. I also need to spend some time on my website at Weebly to update.
