I am loving this class. I am really stretching myself, especially with painting flowers using heavy layers of acrylics. I prefer painting in watercolors but I am really enjoying the process of layering with acrylics. The paintings go through so many stages, sometimes hidious stages! I want to then stop and start over, but with this process I try to stay with it till I like it and what a ride that is! I am definitely growing as a painter.
Hi kate I am also taking Misty's class. I love your work it is amazing. Check out this artist... http://skiplawrence.com/ he uses watercolors like they are acrylics. I have taken 2 workshops with him..in person not online and the way he uses paint is inspiring.
I am a California girl....well, I was born in Pittsburgh but moved to California in my early twenties and stayed for 30 years. I moved with my guy to Charlotte, NC in 2010 and had no idea what a life changing event was ahead of me. My current career as a print designer for the apparel business came to an abrupt end and I had to get my wits about me and figure out what I was going to do the rest of my life. I started painting and never stopped and now I am teaching. I love the creative process and I love sharing it. Life is sweet!!
