Today it was Luna's turn! Cheers to all the moth painters - your landings have begun! 🐌 Please forgive the incremental application, I must swing between air temperature and the sun that hits the wall. More to come if the weather holds. 🦋 Art is a process and so is transformation!

Let's just say that the class work was so much better than the instructor's. Sometimes the learning is better than the result. This is the good stuff.

Monday's session looked at the life and creative practice of Georgia O'Keeffe, whereby we learned she could kill rattlesnakes with her walking stick. We then explored abstractions by using plastic and water media to create textures. Hmm. Jury is out on whether it works, but it was fun trying. This is the good stuff.
