Not a lot of bright colors happening in my studio these days;  I wonder how much just being surrounded by white/grey snow and sky effects the palette?   I had this shell next to the shell in my previous post and it was interesting to note how different their personalities are.

This will be my last post for the year.   Happy Holidays to all and hope the new year is a great one!  Please check in again in the new year.

After a few months practice the art student lamented to the teacher "but I can see the piece so much better in my head than I can get out on canvas!"   To which the teacher replied,  "what makes you think that ever changes?"
