Stonehenge "class"

I did some printing with Jo on Wednesday with limited success, however as always we had a great time....and went "shopping" as a celebration.

We had a great painting class yesterday using the preparation material, it is such fun striving together rather than all struggling independently.

This collage was another part of the work done before and then I played with my new oils !!!!

Then....the colour stepped in.........

Miriam gave me a "wand" and poked it on the front of my 1993 Volvo estate......people did look at me, sadly it disappeared at Officeworks yesterday but I used it for my day picture

SOLD!

Well here it is.........

And I wonder how you can tell the open inspections are over!!!!!!Thanks to all of you for your good wishes, all you blogger friends are so loyal.

Off to Jo's to "play" today may have things to show....or just shopping.......!

Stonehenge

After the success of the art class at the end of last term ( my blog April 10) we are doing another project as a class. I love this so I can do some research and really plan, the outcome may or may not show the "advantage" of the planning but it is fun so first the photos.

Then some collages from Picassa

This loosened me, I guess, and it was time to play and try some ideas so I looked at Ben Nicholson who is a present favourite

And then de Stael

They only deserve to be little paintings but after the auction tomorrow I want to experiment with doing some monoprints.

I am loving doing all these little studies....I could very easily be a "sit down" painter.

I wonder if some day I will know who I want to be when I grow up....de Stael, Feininger, , Matisse,.................................?
