2014

2014 Is Here!!!!

This year I am hoping to do alot more creating.  To this end I have joined Life Book 2014 hosted by Tamara Laporte...at Willowing Arts.  I had done some of her classes in the past.  One News Years Eve I was sitting at home alone, going through my Facebook when I came across a post about the year long course.  I sat for quite a while wondering if I was brave enough to do this.  I finally realised that this is just what I needed right now.  2013 was a difficult year for me.  I had to start my life over with my 14 year old daughter.  Never been on my own before, so it was not as easy as it would seem.  So this art course is exactly what I need, to force me to have some down time.  So I will be trying to do a post at least once a week with the art that I have produced.  This last week I have completed two girls and have sketched a third ready for painting.


This one was the homework for this week.  I really enjoyed working on her, and then jumped right in and did another.
Half way through doing her, I started sketching my next girl on a canvass,
I hope you enjoy visiting my blog, and I would like to wish you all a happy 2014.
