Juneau-Douglas City Museum
For the month of February, 2014 the
held their 10th! annual fundraiser:
the 12 x 12 Exhibit
This year the theme was
Black & White
My next blog or two will contain photos of planning and executing my 2 entries.
Initial sketch.
Update note about the Silverbow show.
I am staining and painting the frames Matt made (which are beautiful by the way)
and buffing the protective Dorland's Wax Medium "varnish" on the paintings I hope to hang.

Drawing session
Yesterday I was able to go to the life drawing session at
We draw a model for three hours. Time flies by so fast!
This is my second drawing - the first one was me being a bit rusty.

My large flower painting is going well, albeit slowly. Not sure it will be included
in my exhibit of paintings for March at the Silverbow Backroom gallery.
The photos in that link show the walls as red, but they are not red anymore.
They are a neutral light gray - good for displaying art.
Opening is March 7.

Getting going
... without further contemplation, I have begun my new painting.
It is big.
Here are the first few sketches, with charcoal.
I have a bouquet
but also took some photos ...
(because the silly flowers are real, and they keep blooming and stuff)
Wish me luck! (it will be fun)
