Hi Darrell, The attachment is of my try at Grandpa’s Cabin. I will try it again when I get a knife. I think that will make the tree and mountains better.
I also had trouble with my fan brush and the snow drifts so I wiped them off and left them out and painted the grass with a detail brush. Don’t think the bristles are correct in my brush.
I am 62 and started painting this January. I took a few lessons at Hobby Lobby but the teacher just had us all start on anything we wanted and she walked around the room and told us what color to use and how to mix the paint. She would paint on our painting to show how to do what we were trying to do. I did not like someone painting on my art because I couldn’t learn unless I kept trying it. She would try to show me on newspaper and then I would try but it wasn’t the same.Read the rest of this entry »

I love hearing how everyone spends their holidays, their customs, their joys, their challenges. And once in a while, someone shares a very touching story with me.
Yesterday, Adriana went with me to help retrieve items from the hospital. And would you believe it? She fell down the stairs and sprained her leg and tearing some muscle tissues. So we’ve found a new way to share things together …..
As a small company builds, its great to watch the growth and to participate in its evolvement. One of the most common nightmares for a small company is the pain growth produces.
What is not a virus?Because of the publicity that viruses have received, it is easy to blame any computer problem on a virus. The following are not likely to be caused by a virus or other malicious code:
I must have a dozen phone calls and scads of emails asking me to keep the Labor Day Sale open for just one more day. Seems a number of our students were away for the weekend and didn’t see the sale announcement until their return. Whereas I wouldn’t normally keep a sale going, I will in this case for another 24-hours. I’ve put the sales notice back up on the website so the sale is once again active.
To review, I’ve got four products we’re offering …
Up early and with a nice cup of coffee I was out early on the deck to watch the sunrise turn into a most beautiful day for painting.
Family came over for the day’s festivities and we celebrated Labor Day with a Bar-b-Que. I think one of the best things about holidays is that its a time when both parents just spend time playing with the kids and having a lot of fun together. I trust your day was as rewarding as ours. Even Champ, our Cocker Spaniel, had time to just kind of lay out and sun-bathe next to some flowers.

Hi everyone, just a couple of notes for you that are important.
Chicklet is the last of the monthly DVDs for pet portrait subscribers. I’d originally miscounted (I counted the six we did in the first four DVDs). So there were six additional pets and not 12 as I’d thought. I’d considered doing a parrot, bunny rabbit, ferrit, iguana, cannaries, MaCaw, but that would have been me painting the pet portraits and not Valerie. I’m not able to film Valerie until February again, so I had to make a decision whether or not to wait until next year or do the additional animals myself.
