Southern Magnolia Take 4

I had no plans for this painting when I started (just practice getting my feet wet again) but I think I have already found it a home (guest bathroom)!  Darn if I always end up loving the paintings on odd size canvases.  Framing will be a chore. :(  I am not allowed to buy canvases anymore without standard size frames available!

Southern Magnolia - Take 3

I love documenting a painting's progress!  It never gets old (to me)!

Southern Magnolia - Night 2 (and my new student)

I have a student in the art studio these days.  I think he is beginning to like it...the bone helps. (Meet Brody!)

Southern Magnolia

I've wanted to paint the magnolia photo mentioned in this blog post for awhile now.  In fact, I am horrified to say it seems like yesterday but it was 2 years ago.  Scholastic activities ARE over...so here we go!

Let the fun begin!
