Watch Gritty Jane as she paints--amazing!




You can follow her on YouTube at GrittyArts; you can follow her blog at grittyjane.com ; you can join her on her Ning site Cloth and Clay Dolls where you can enroll in online classes.



She is one of my all time favorite artists and I hope you enjoy watching her, too.

I am signed up for an online art class!

A while back, I told you about a class that was about to open at All Norah'S Art.  Well, after thinking it over, I decided I wanted to do this class so I jumped right in and paid my fee and signed myself up.  Now, I am anxiously awaiting the start this Friday.  The great thing is that Sharon has posted a bonus video at the site for the class, so I have been busy getting my feet wet. 

Today, I spent several hours running around Austin trying to find all the supplies I will need for the class.  I did finally manage to get all but 2 things--supplies that cover 3 weeks.  So, now I think I will order those two things online and get them in the mail.  I hate to shop! 

I've decided that from now on whenever I take any class, I will order my supplies online and just have to go to the post office to pick-up one thing.  That I can do, but it's still not my favorite thing.

Anyway, I'm hoping that this class will help me stay motivated.  Who knows, I may even get my bunny painted in time for Easter this year!  What a thought!

So, for your enjoyment, I am posting a video  from YouTube that shows the instructor doing what she does best.  Enjoy.

I've enrolled in my first online art class!

Several days ago, I posted about a class on faces from Norah'S Art blog.  Well, she finally got it set up and enrollment is now open.  So, of course, I hurried over to pay my money and get myself ready to go.  The class will start on Feb. 5th, but I think you can work at your own pace. So,hurry over and join the fun if that's the kind of thing you like!  If you visit her site, she has a cute video on it where she talks about the class while she is working on a lovely painting.




Another place to visit and learn is Suzet.com.  She runs The Art Studio and has a Ning site with videos and classes.  I found her on YouTube and I recommend her video on sketchbooks.  Below is the first day's video for you to watch, but go to her site and join in the fun.
