It's a good thing to be busy in the studio. Some days, everything comes together and it's a thrill to be painting and drawing. Other days, it feels like everything learned and earned has been forgotten, and the muse has left one stranded. The only thing to do on those tougher days is push on through. It always gets better. I have been playing around with little grids of watercolor (well, gouache) grids of rabbits and quail. I find that jackrabbits are less likely to cooperate about being pushed into boxes. They have their own ideas... The quail are not as picky. They don't need as much space. They don't seem to mind the boxes I put them in. This little painting has already found a home, so I guess I better work on another one. I'm also re-working a couple of coyotes that I never managed to resolve to my satisfaction. I will be able to show them, soon. There is some news - big news! But I am not quite ready to share it just yet. Stay posted. (and if you really want the latest news, I highly recommend signing up for my newsletter. Link is in green below. I send out emails bi-monthly, or more often if there is exciting news to share. Art related. I don't share my email list with anyone, either.
