Simply.... A Rose

     Since the time I have started blogging, have been learning a lot from fellow bloggers. Carol Schiff had mentioned in her blog carolschiffstudio.blogspot.com that to break the monotony of a big art work try doing a small work in between. It acts as a therapy. It definitely worked for me. I had been working on a large piece. Then due to my primary profession pressures could not paint for a few days. Was finding it difficult to get back to my work station. Decided to do a small sketch. This rose outside my door caught my attention. Double benefits. I have a new painting for my blog......am already charged up for my next painting.

  2. I just started doing small daily paintings as of June 1, and it is totally working for me. I was getting stuck on larger paintings when I was away from them for any period of time. I am hoping to improve my painting skills more quickly this way.
    Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog.
