Spooktacular Dancers

My watercolor painting of a few little dancers from a past Halloween performance.

Working on Tiara Girls

Here's a sketch of my next painting. Two young girls in a ballet performance wearing tiaras of course! I hope to finish this one tomorrow, but I might not, since I've been asked to teach a lesson in watercolor to the after school program my granddaughter attends.

I've been thinking about my years of teaching art. Being asked to give a lesson brings back so many feelings that went along with that job. I'm hesitant to teach--I had truly reached a serious burnout point, that the thought of teaching again makes me feel somewhat ill.

Perhaps I'll be surprised and have a lot of fun with this class? We shall see...

Dancers II

I liked how these young girl's dancing arms framed this older viewer.
You may have noticed I took the buy buttons off this painting--I'll be taking the buttons off the other dance related paintings, because I'll be framing them to sell at the dance studio. I'm hoping they sell, but if they don't I'll then put them up for sale again here.

Some photos of before and after Easter.

My husband tried to get just the right color of JADE for his egg.


We made braided bread--yummm!


These are two projects in the making: A Unicorn Marionette, my granddaughter and I made using all found materials around the house, and two natal wheels I'm working on. You may see those natal wheels again as I add more and more to them.
