Tom, Enzie, Debra,
Thank you for your advice. I guess I will just split my time between drawing and painting which is kind of what I have been doing. It takes me a whole day for painting because I mix Marvin's palette and that still takes me a couple hours. But, I really am struggling with putting the color down and getting it to look right . . . Enzie you and I can scream together. I look forward to meeting you in a few weeks!! And Janel too. Val Warner will be there also and she is a blast to have in workshop. Should be a good group.

Debra I truly appreciate your input and value your suggetions. I like the idea of memory drawing and have to try it out. I am bad about carrying a sketchbook around but go in spurts. Currenlty I am in sketching mode every day and it does help me see everything around me. Why do we let this habit go so easily?? I guess it is like exercising, huh?

I have a couple of wash-ins completed, maybe I will take them further with just black and white. It is a good idea and I think will be less intimidating. Perhaps the best way to spend the next couple weeks before the workshop.

I appreciate all your advice. Tom, you are my quintessential Nike commercial and just what I needed to read!!!
