New commitment!

I have been so bad about posting but I am going to try to start posting something everyday even if I don't have any photos to post.
I need to do some catching up first. So much going on these days, ... the Waterway Fest was this past weekend and turned out great with fabulous weather. I did a watercolor demo for the Woodlands Art League booth. Lots of my artist friends did demos as well.

I was in the Watercolor Art Society of Houston's 31st International Exhibition judged by Stephen Quiller. He did a workshop to great reviews but I did not take it.

I was lucky enough to a get first place ribbon in Watercolor in the WAL Juried show recently (big surprise for me as there were some really nice ones in the show). Bill Kalawick judged that show and is doing a workshop coming up soon.

Took a great workshop in January with Leslie Humphrey, well known equestrian artist from England. The workshop covered Horses, Deer and Dogs.

I took Polly Hammett's figure painting class this past season and also got to hang out with her sister Virginia Cobb. Virginia taught a workshop here in the woodlands on Abstract painting which I was lucky enough to get in. That was the first week of April. I loved it and learned so much and I really think it has helped me to loosen up my painting and drawing a little...which I have been working on for a while!

Finally got caught up at the Mitchel Pavillion portrait wall but now have a whole new batch of portraits to add. That's just never ending I guess.

I had a wonderful group of students and inordinately large classes for Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain (DRSB) and Watercolor in spite of yourself at the college this semester. Everyone was so enthusiastic and seemed to really have fun. It's so much fun to teach when Students are like that.

Other than that I have been painting and drawing at the model sessions we have here during the week and working on paintings to get ready for the Market Street show coming up on Saturday May 3rd.

I think that's about it. I'm off to Polly's last class today and will write more tomorrow. I will try to start posting my daily work. cheers!
