Don't Go Through Life, Grow Through Life by Pamela Blaies

One Pink Rose and a Ginger Jar

I just returned home from attending a workshop with Quiang Huang. He is a fantastic painter and teacher. His workshop was fun and he did several demos. I picked up so much just from observing his technique, use of color and attention to value and temperature. The more I learn about color, composition and value, the more I see how the infinite ideas and possibilities will take more than a lifetime for me to explore. Here is a piece I painted this afternoon.  I used a brush for most of this one, but there's nothing like a palette knife for beautiful, juicy highlights!
