Am I the only one having problems with computers? I love using them and what they can do for me but I do have loads of problems when I use them just the same. I want to apologize to anyone who has checked the blog in recent months and found it stagnant - my mistake - I could not get into the blog for some reason. I had just set it up and then when I came back to it a week later I could not get into it. I had no one to ask for help at the time and just kind of gave up on it for a while knowing that there was not much there and it was just started as far as that goes... Then a week or so back I took another swing at it and became frustrated again with error boxes and such. Finally my "partner in crime" came to my aid and after several hours of figuring out what I "did" to cause this catastrophe to begin with, he got things straight again. I am not that tech savvy at all and this had something to do with how I set the blog up. Still not sure "what I did" but the end result is I am finally back and I will be able to keep up now :)
I am currently working on a mixed media painting of the Blue Bridge that is soon to be torn down and replaced by a new structure. I usually work in oils when painting but have decided to use acrylic in this piece as I want to work quickly and have faster drying time. This is the first layer and there is more to go obviously as it is only paint and you can see some of the paper collage showing through. A rough drawing is starting to take shape over the paint as well.
Its a gorgeous sunny day here and I always feel motivated to work on sunny days, even if I don't get outside. There is something about the sunlight streaming in the windows, it feels good. More to come....
