Journal Painting

This week I am doing my last Bay View watercolor sketchbook journal class of the summer.
It always makes me a little sad. It really marks the end of summer. I see I felt the same way last summer. Every Year.

I usually have a couple of projects to get going on right after the very busy summer season, and that always helps. This year I have my painting composition classes to keep me on my toes, and an out-of-town group coming up for a workshop - fun!

I used to say that it never rains on my journal class, BUT this year it has been very different. Right in the middle of painting this demonstration, the heavens opened up. We headed for shelter and finished out the class with some people painting on the porch, and others setting up art supply still lifes and painting inside. The group is adaptable and eager - they could paint anywhere under any conditions.

What a great time we had in this last Wtrclr sketchbook Journaling group. Met new friends and enjoyed the "slightly older" :-) ones too!
Let's do it again next year!
Always love your demo's and instructions. Marj. M.
