"74... 26 More"

74... yes 26 more, I'm approaching the finish line, I can almost see it!

Sure have been learning a lot by doing this series. All the different materials and techniques I've been trying... wow! Also, just when I think a painting is not going to come around it does... thank goodness, else I'd want to quit! No quitting allowed!

Here is a black and white version, I was checking my tonalities, you know, the lights and darks and middle tones.... how did I do?

Yesterday, I taught a "Cookies and Canvas" to about 26 kids, well, maybe 23, I think I had three adults participating with their small painters too. It was fun, one of the painters asked me if I was "famous". I said "Not yet" and smiled... thinking... not yet...
I'll post a picture or two when they become available on the Wine&Canvas face book site.

It's Sunday, the beginning of an new week!! More apples and itty bitty paintings coming!
