Milind Mulick

 Daniel Smith offers Zoom chat/demos on Fridays with some wonderful watercolorists.  Today's artist was Milind Mulick, an Indian artist whose work was new to me.  I fell in love.  My husband did, too.  I'm so grateful to John Cogley, the owner of  Daniel Smith, for presenting these wonderful artists.  The presentations are free, but the catch is that you'll want to go shopping for art supplies afterward.😊  How much more fun could you ask for?  Here is a link to Miland's work.   https://www.milindmulick.com/    Let me know what you think.  Have a fun weekend!

September May Be My Favorite Month.

September is still pretty warm at the beginning of the month, but the light and the heat are different than in the summer.  The last two weeks of September are usually perfect here.  I love it.  I feel so sad about all the things going on - floods and fires.  I haven't painted anything recently, so I decided to post a picture of Georgie to maybe make you smile.  He makes me smile.  He's wearing 3 leashes because he's a canine Houdini and he's standing on 2 legs because he likes to get a better look at the world upon occasion.

 Here's my friend's goat, Goldie.  She's here to make you smile, too.  Someone said she looks like she's ready to take your ticket to get into the carnival.

Have a wonderful weekend.  I'm starting to feel a little better because the wind has died down in Lake Tahoe.  Maybe they'll get the fire put out soon.

 

Back to My Blog

 Hello, Friends!  When I finally got around to posting to my blog, I couldn't remember how to get back in😊.  I hope everyone is still making beautiful art.  I started taking Zoom classes from Don Andrews in April.  He's a talented artist and a good teacher.  His wife, Martha, handles the technology.  The two make a great team.  They're both really nice.  The classes are once a month on a Saturday.  Don was a guest at a Nevada Watercolor Society Zoom meeting in March.  I did a painting from his demo.  I would post a photo of his painting, but mine won't stand up to the comparison😊.  Anyhow, enjoy this lovely (extremely hot even by Las Vegas standards)Monday!

Calico Cat

 I painted this pretty baby in my sketchbook.  I've started painting the same cat on 1/4 sheet.  When I finish, I'll post that.  I'm going to try to loosen up on my next painting.

It's Almost Christmas!

 We parked out at a school on the southeast part of town at a higher elevation so we could observe The Star of Bethlehem tonight.  I was amazed thinking that Jupiter and Saturn hadn't come so close at night in 800 years and also thinking that this was what the sky probably looked like 2,000 years ago when Jesus was born.

We've been in the Christmas mood.  We painted the front windows and put up lights.  I made Christmas cards.  My sister sent us a package with instructions to open immediately.  They were our Christmas slippers.  

Merry Christmas, My Friends!  I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and we get back to normal soon!

What Fun!

 Jim and I watched a David Smith demo Tuesday afternoon.  It was so much fun!  I need to work on things like my roots, my water and my rocks, but I learned a lot and, as always with David, I had a blast.

New T-Shirt!

 My sister sent me this T-shirt.  It came in the mail today.  I had to show you guys because I think it's so cute.  I love it!
