NFS
Today started with an early rise so that I could get my wrecked studio into shape for my students who were returning after the holiday break. What a mess! After about two hours I managed to get enough stuff moved around so that folks could work. I am so done with this whole waiting thing! I can't wait until the new studio is finished. You could hide a body in the old one.
After my students left, I got busy with Day Two of my commission but didn't wrap it up until dinner time. So for my daily painting, I borrowed one of the peonies from the painting and, viola! A daily painting. OK - so it's not for sale. But I did finish it in about the time I take to do a DP, so it sort of counts. Check in with my teaching blog later tonight for more about this peony and the painting as it develops.

Beautiful. I'm following on your web site. I think you must be an incredible teacher the way you pass on how you do things.
Thanks Liz! I enjoy painting but have come to find, at least for myself, that technique and color are a very small part of what goes into a painting. Practice, practice and more practice. It's the discipline and hard work that pays off. So I can teach and teach but if students won't practice at home, they don't progress much. I'm sure you know that from your own discipline.
