new beginnings

A new school year brings excitement , hope and sometimes a little fear. Have I forgotten everything I know? Of course not, but everyone gets a little rusty every now and then. I spent my summer creating some fun paintings, and exploring some small watercolor landscapes.One of the best ways to enter a new project is to be playful ! And, if you’re not instantly inspired, try practicing value scales, or making even, directional strokes when you are just sitting around. Play with color studies by looking at nature, or clothing or toys, and jot down the color combinations in a sketchbook, matching the colors as close as you can. New beginnings means a new approach to art fun and understanding.
