After and extended holiday where I took a break, I'm back to

painting and loving every minute. I didn't do absolutely nothing,

I did lie around alot and read books about 

goal setting and achievement.

I received a Fitbit for Christmas (that wirelessly tracks your activity level)

and that might have been a hint for someone special;)

It actually thought I was in a coma for a while and would

have called in a medical alert if it could have.

I'm re-energized and ready to create a wonderful 2014.

Hope you are too!

PS- prints for my European friend should go out the first of next week.

There is a campground near my house with small cabins for rent painted

in different colors.  Most of the people that visit are Dutch, who 

find summer and fall in Burgundy quite warm.

The green one really caught my eye against the colorful leaves.

These colorful flowers brought a smile to my face

this morning.

They seemed to be dancing in the sunlight.

Happy, happy!

One of the things that impressed me the most in the

workshop with Ovanes Berberian was watching

him do a demo from a black and white rough sketch.

He did the painting largely from imagination, and

suggested that we do the same, either from a

previously painted painting or a loose sketch,

revisiting the same scene or subject multiple times.

I really enjoyed painting this and found it was much

easier to ignore local color and just create my own

color scheme.

This is another version of the glasses done on a

palette that was tinted the same color as my under painting

on my board.

 

I think I'm getting used to it, although it's a bit

confusing. To me the colors

seem to harmonize and pop more.

 

What do you think?
