Drawing, Painting, Experimenting, Learning, Sharing



It's mid-June, 2020. Since my last post, I've been drawing, painting, experimenting, learning, studying the work and philosophy of other artists — from Leonardo da Vinci to Milton Avery (and beyond) — working with various media including Procreate on my iPad, sharing work on Facebook and Instagram, teaching workshops and private classes. 

To quote Cheng-Khee Chee, "I am a perennial student."

In 2019, we moved into a new house, me into a new studio. I resolved to draw and/or paint in watercolor every day. I did, with few exceptions. I can't say every painting was a keeper but each was a learning experience. 

It would be challenging to go back and describe all that I've learned, experimented with. I will start with what is going on 
today. 

One of my most recent paintings (above) is titled I Will Sing My Song For You.
