Latest video, How to Paint a Stormy sky

How to paint a stormy sky
Click the link to watch the video.
This video was created at home a couple of weeks ago and I published in while in San Francisco.
I brought my paints along for this trip but am only finding a half hour here and there while looking after my 6 month old grand daughter, Madeline May. My daughter Michelle is here for a conference so I came along to look after the baby.
 San Francisco is a crazy hilly place. I knew it was but until you actually see cars climbing these steep steep hills you don't really get it.
   I picked up some postcards which were reproductions of paintings by an artist name ThIbault. lovely!

Happy New Yeatr

Happy New Year Everyone! I wish you many blessings and a creative New Year filled with Joy!

I will be away most of January so my classes will resume in February. I will post them here as soon as I get more organized. In the meantime you can check out my videos.
I created 3 video about painting your own Christmas Cards and 2 videos about making miniature paintings for Christmas ornaments. I am now starting a landscape series. The first one is about painting Cumulus clouds, the next will be stormy skies. Right now i am just creating video about watercolor painting, but who knows perhaps I will branch out into acrylics in the new year as well.
