I'm very excited to be painting! Inspired by Kelly Rae Roberts' "Taking Flight", I just started painting and I'm very pleased by my first efforts. It is encouraging, and I really enjoyed it, so I hope to do more. I also did a collage entirely of torn paper, a scenic view of Cape Lookout. I am going to do some washes of color over the various parts, and also add some texture with stamps and heavy gel medium. It's very exciting!!
