RUNDLE REVIVAL-CANADIAN ROCKIES

"What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything?" Vincent van Gogh

I am a watercolour artist....have been for as long as I remember. A few years ago I bought an Acrylic starter kit, wanting to learn how to paint acrylic. The kit has sat in my art cupboard for years. Many times I have looked at it, touched it, then put it back. I don't know how to paint with acrylics! What will people think if I fail?! (What people?)

Today I pulled out the acrylic kit, unwrapped everything, and painted Rundle Revival. The painting is 12" x 16", and I'd like to sell it for $150. All proceeds to the Banff YWCA who desperately need funds right now to help them in this Global Crisis we are in.

If interested, text me at 403-760-9922.

What have you been afraid to try?

AN OUNCE OF PRACTICE-CANADIAN ROCKIES

"An ounce of practice is worth a thousand words" Gandhi
With the world practicing social distancing in the midst of the Covid-19 virus, I have been spending some time in my studio going thru supplies, sorting images, and planning some new pieces.

On one of the walls is a painting that is made of many images. It initially started as a painting of my son who was a youngster playing hockey with the Banff Bears. After failing a few times to get the image "right", I decided to use the canvas as a practice piece to test color, design and brush strokes. Many paintings have been created and sold who's colour and concept began on this canvas. What hobbies/skills do you want to dust off, put some time into and improve? You have the time now.
Enjoy the journey.
