Week 1: The Highs & The Lows


As with many weeks, this week contained both highs and lows. The good news is that I've developed strategies to manage the lows, times when I think I'm wasting my time and have no talent. This week's strategy was to copy a painting of an artist I admire. I always learn from the process and because it's a copy, it looks great when it's done and raises my spirits.

This week I copied a Mike Hernandez. I applied what I learned and painted Carmel Cliffs, which is from a photograph I took in Carmel this summer. I'm very happy with the painting and plan to submit it to the Studio Gallery for their "Tiny Show, " which opens in November. Fingers crossed.
