Yes it has been a long time since I've posted on this blog, but I have been busy painting. I will have some new paintings in progress posted soon. I'm currently working on three paintings (actually about 10 paintings but 3 are on top of my list.) One is about a clown, another is about photography and the third, that's almost complete, is a painting about seven faces and a flower.
Although I'm not in a painting class currently, I've developed some skills that I have learned to expand my talents and intend to use them in future paintings. Painting classes are important to me to receive feedback from teachers and other artists but it also can damage or limit an artists vision. There are several ways to paint a painting and everyone has their own opinion on what they consider good art. I don't want to be in a mind-set that everything should look the way the instructor tells you. Advice is good but you want the painting to be your vision with your ideas.
I plan on taking more classes, but for now I'm going to trust myself and paint solo.
