Here in Kansas it is storming tonight. So far we have been fortunate and missed out on tornadoes and any damaging hail. (fingers crossed). But, with the bad weather comes an excuse to stay inside and create. So be on the lookout for images of new art soon.

Personal

With work begun on the “Torso in Polymer Clay”, I have revived a love in me for creating the human form. I find myself wanting to get out my oils again. Not for mixed media pieces but for purer medium use. So be on the lookout for possible oil painting lessons to show up on the ‘free page’, and/or perhaps Pastels.

There is just something about walking into a room and smelling oil paints that gets in one’s artistic blood.
