From a class this summer.
Here it is the first of September and I'm still thinking of summer classes. It was a perfect summer for workshops and classes - the weather was beautiful and the people were just wonderful!
Why does September always seem like a new year? A new beginning. I spent a few minutes this afternoon putting things on my calendar that I would like to accomplish in the next few months. So - I am throwing out a challenge for myself and anyone else that would like to do it. Mary T are you reading this? Because the clouds are just so dramatic here in September and October, I am going to try to do no fewer than 16 small paintings, drawings, or whatever, of clouds. These can be landscapes, "bayscapes" or just plain clouds. I have 16 small (5 1/2 X 7 1/2) pieces of paper ready to go - drawing paper, watercolor paper, misc. paper, but since I think clouds lend themselves to juicy watercolor, I'll probably do more of that.
I have to say, this is a challenge for me. I am really not very good at clouds. I never do paintings that are "about" clouds, so we'll see what happens, huh? If you want to join me, leave us a link to your clouds in the "comments".
