Little update

Thought I should say hi and share some news, so you know I haven't dropped of the face of the earth! I've actually been busier than ever, just not so great at the blog updates. Last weekend I did my first "art walk", in Montrose, CA--one of my favorite places. I've been showing in galleries and other venues for the last year, so I wanted to give the outdoor thing a try as well.



Another first was my public demo, conducted in my tent. It was an interesting way to work, stopping and starting throughout the day, paint drying much faster than I'm used to in the warm breeze, and bugs and dirt sticking to the surface as buses passed. I experimented a little, and I think it has a cool "fresco" kind of look.

In other news, I'm finishing up a ten-week anatomy course that was just what I needed. I took it online at www.scott-eaton.com, and I very highly recommend it.

More soon!
