Hi!
This morning, after I send this letter off to you, I will be meeting
via ZOOM with a small group of fans.
These six will help me beta-test a workshop where we will engage in a
little creative play using sparkly, shimmery handmade watercolors.
Why not teach oil painting online instead? you might ask.
Actually I will, all in due time.
You know, oils are actually easier to paint with than many people
think, as the folks who came to my retreat in Cheboygan discovered.
Still, some people find them intimidating.
So first, I want to get some practice with the tech tools necessary to
pull that off successfully.
That's easier to do with irresistibly dazzling watercolors.
Besides, who couldn't use a little creative play now and then?
I am already gearing up for 2024's oil painting plan.
It includes several very large still life paintings in my usual
contemporary realism style, and a truckload of small plein air
landscapes.
This coming year also includes a couple of art fairs, several local and
international competitions, and of course the two STRADA Easel
challenges.
And in between will be at least one or two creative play breaks.
Just give me ten minutes of quiet birdsong and I'm ready!!!

P.S. Shhhhhhhh!
