Practicing with ink from a Claudia Nice book. #inktober2020

A commission I just finished that will be winging its way to the Yukon Territories where the photo was taken.

Hi everyone! Just poking my nose in here to say hi! I’m enjoying my August off. How about you? Yesterday, today and tomorrow I’m enjoying a staycation. I’ve been participating in a painting conference that went online and I’m painting some really cute paintings. I’ll post them when I’m done. If you haven’t caught upon all the free classes online here you can check out the videos tab to find them. I will be taking them down in September- I know, I know I’ve said it before b...ut September starts a new painting year here. Along with a new school year for a lot of you and your kiddos! So get painting if you haven’t yet !! The paint racks in the stores are finally starting to get refilled. If you can’t find it locally check out www.stockade.ca to order paints in. They have a discount if you order enough . Keep our small Canadian distributors in business eh? They carry the full line of Americana paints. I’m going to give you a couple of weeks to get settled in September and I will probably start online art parties and classes the third week or last week of September. If you are homeschooling I’ll be doing actual art classes for kids. And stress relieving art parties for the adults. I also want to start some more challenging paintings for those of you who really would like to learn HOW to paint. Let me know I the comments what you are most interested in. Send me photos you would like me to show you how to paint Let me know what you are doing this summer. What are you looking forward to this fall?
