You guys will get tired of this, but once again, I am posting something I've made changes to. I lightened the background, a lot, on this painting. It is dark in my family room, and the colors that looked bold under a bright light, were very dim in the house. I may lighten it even more, but I think this is improved.

Number 233. Today I took a one day workshop to paint an abstract flower. Kathe Suddendorf was the teacher. It was a fun experience, and I like my painting. In fact, I think I'll paint a sunflower! (surprise, surprise!)
I like Kathes' direct approach to painting. It was easy to follow her directions. My flower does not look like the sample, and she was okay with that. I learned a lot about painting, and I know I just touched the subject.
I took a painting class from another Kathy, Kathy Rhadigan a couple years ago. It was a mural class, and I painted a large dream scene. So, since I am a Kathy, I am now triple dosed with Kathy perspective.
I am including a picture of the mural I painted in Kathy Rhadigans' class.

A stool pigeon, made for 212 Arts. This was fun!

Pale blue bird. Number 49. At this rate, I may catch up to last years' count.

Maybe this is best, turtle. Number 48.

Sun, worst of the day. Painted on a gray zigzag print. Number 47.

Pitcher of flowers, the best of the day, number 46.

Painted paisley, number 45.

Like my hairdo? Number 44.

Lightning hand, number 43.

Face painted on a circle print. Number 42.

A monkey dog, number 41.

These are glue resist pix I drew last week, and painted today. Numbers 20 and 21.

Today the Baguettes did glue resist paintings. Gail made some abstracts for us. She painted this one. It looks Aztec to me.

Deb painted this one, like water.

I wiped up the paint with this one. Still looks good.

Looks cool painted, huh? I drew and painted this one. This is number 17.

You can hardly tell this is a goddess.

Babe painted the bird.

The bird. I drew it. Not counting it.

Deb painted this.

The glue fish. I drew it. Not counting it.

The painted skeleton. I drew it, Julie painted it. Not counting it.

This is the glue picture of a skeleton, before painting.

More Santos! We had a good time painting saints. Of course, I did the Lady of Guadalupe again. This time I did it freehand. Karen did St. Barbara.

Today was Santos painting day. Karen and I painted these, little saints of New Mexico. The bottom 2 are mine. This is 284, not counting the secret felt things.
