TGSHS (Thank God School Has Started)  

Summer went quick but very busy for me at least.  We didn't slack off on our painting though.

Shirley is still recovering from her foot surgery.  She can actually walk around without her "boot".  She has really taken a liking to her plein air painting box.  I wonder if she will ever paint big again???  I don't think we'll be able to get her away from it.

This week Liz got to join us.  Its nice to see her smiling face again.  She's working on a piece that is going to be gorgeous.  I'm sure of it.  You don't give yourself enough credit Liz.

Linney has now changed her background on this piece.  Who knows what she'll do next with it.  We're always amazed at what she pulls out of her bag to use on her paintings.  I truly think she is the only person I know that owns just about every painting medium known to man.  It's wonderful Linney.

Well, here I am trying to do a still life. I'm not happy with it.  After I got home I noticed that my easel must not have been level when I was painting it.  It's all leaning to the right.  I think I'll just paint over it and go at it again. 

I'll bring all the stuff to do a still life again soon but I feel a new painting coming on.  I've got some ideas swirling in my head.  The question is, will life let me do it? We'll see.

Until next time,

God Bless

First of all, I wanted to express our condolences to Pat Wheeler's Husband and family.  She was a great artist, friend and such an important part of KAS.  She always out did herself.  We're going to miss you Pat.

I think one of the best things about painting on Thursdays is seeing all the different artwork.  I can't wait to get there and see what everyone is working on.  I also thank God that we are able to come together each week like this to do what we love.  We are truly blessed.

          

          

Vickie was showing off her beautiful Painting Apron that she made and took a few orders.

Ashley visited us again today.  She had to wheel Grandma around and take care of her.  What would Shirley do without her?

Well my pigs are finally morphing into cows now.  Still got some work to do though.

Don't know if I'll get to paint this Thursday or not.  We have to get our oldest son back to College in Florida.  So hopefully whoever does come will take some pictures for me if I'm a no show.

Stay Cool!
