painting is fun

I had a lot of procrastinating to get done before I finally got set up and doing the color mixing exercises, which turned out, after all the hoo-hah, to be quite fun.

Then, since I had paint out and all, I decided to revamp a painting I'd done a month or so ago. This painting started out life as a study done by my sister. It then became some more organic forms in blues and browns. But today, it wanted to be colorful!! I decided to name it "do over"; both because of its origins but also because it feels as joyful and free to me as when you do give yourself permission to have a "do over."

Wee.

Here are some pix of the color mixing. I did a page of things mixed with Lemon Yellow and then another of things mixed with Cadmium Yellow Light. It was definitely encouraging.
