New painting started!

7/30/2011

I'm starting a new watercolor or maybe acrylic. It will be
similar to the empty chair, the sun coming through the window onto a table top. I also need to do a few more old trees. I got two "likes" on the Tannery Row Facebook page.

Here are the two paintings that I've already done that are in the gallery at the Tannery.

iPad drawing- flowers!

7/28/2011

Here's a pic I did using the Brushes app of flowers just out of
my head. The iPad really is fun. It's like finger-painting. I took a pair of
cotton gloves and cut the fingers out, so I can paint without touching the
screen with the side of my hand. It's working better. There is a fabulous video
on You Tube and you'll notice the gloved hand on the artist. Here's the link to
the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OLP4nbAVA4and the Artist is David Jon Kassan -

iPad!

7/27/2011

Started a drawing and I've noticed one thing. Use a glove, if any part of your
hand touches the screen, it just might mess you up. I was almost done with the
drawing in brushes, and one of the layers disappeared. I had to delete it.

iPad2 Drawing!!! Yes!

7/26/2011

I just got an iPad and I 've been drawing a little on it. Here are my first two drawings. The first one is a face just out of my head. The other one is of my hubby napping today. It's a lot of fun and no mess!

Show at the Tannery Row Galllery!

I've had some wonderful comments on my facebook on the show. The empty chair watercolor has gotten some notice. It is my latest watercolor, I just finished it before the show. The show has 5 paintings not on the web site. I will try to get those photographed and on the site soon. Here is a photo of the empty chair in the gallery.

Three featured artists this month at the Tannery Gallery, and I
am one of the three. There are 30+ paintings and drawings on display in

I have to get over to the Tannery and Frame the works I did in the "Gardens of Atlanta Tour" http://www.lunaslilliesinc.com/ for the show Thursday.
