Flora Bowley

I took Flora Bowley's e-course last February.  I've signed up again so that I can absorb more of her free spirit.  The two paintings above are in their beginning stages.  Her process has many layers and it's so fun to compare the before and after of a painting. 

The Sketchbook Project

I have joined The Sketchbook Challenge this year. January's theme is doodling. Here are two of my recent doodles.

The Craft Table

When the Pilot and I moved to our second house in Beeville,Texas this wooden table was left behind in the garage. I promptly claimed it for my craft table. In our first house, in Milton Florida, I painted in the guest bedroom with an easel and a small table. I had a writing desk (which I've always had), but I was excited to have a big table to spread stuff out on. And it has been my constant companion through seven more houses. There's always a spot for the craft table. I now have two other large worktables, but this one will always be special.

And it looks so fun after a few painting sessions. I repaint it every so often, and then I get to "mess" it up again!
