So finally a new painting. My class is finished. The videos are still up for me to watch. So I can keep working from them. Though I think I absorbed the lessons very well. I will keep watching and taking in all the techniques. This is the final finished painting.

There is another class staring this fall. I want to take it too. I don’t know if I will be able to. I will be starting school in two months. The end of august. I’m excited and worried and terrified. It can’t start soon enough. I want to get it over with and get settled back into school mode. And then there is moving, which I hope to do at the end of november. Lots of stress.  And far too much time for the stress to build up. But plenty of time to paint until then. If I can. Sometimes under stress I can’t paint if I don’t have to.

So here it is.

his eyes still looked eagerly

I know I haven’t been posting much artwork recently, I’ve just got the backgrounds from the class. When the class is done I’ll be doing some fun stuff with them and using those techniques on some paintings. But untill then…....

Here’s something fun to watch. I love veggies. By the time the cupcake takes off his wrapper you will be very glad you watched.
