I finally finished my first face painting in my class

Here is a picture of my first finished painting from the online class I have been taking.  I am so far behind in this class, but that is the nice thing about taking a class online.  You can work at your own pace.

I watch the class videos over and over and I have really learned quite a lot.  Now, I just have to take that information and practice, practice, practice...until it becomes second nature to me.

I just had to show you my picture.  I am so proud of her.

My class has started and I am so happy!

Today is the day.  Today I start my art class!  I have my supplies, except for a couple of paints I had to order from Dick Blick.  I have watched my videos and read all the posts on the Ning site from my classmates.  I have gessoed my little canvases and I have printed out the pictures to transfer to the canvases.  I am so excited.

After I eat something, I will be doing the practice drawing of the face, just like the video.  I am going to be having a fun time Playing Art!

I will post my completed work when I get done.  For now, here is a picture of my little canvases all ready to go!

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.
