Workshop Woes

[Chris Saper]

Yes, there's never a shortage of any of us finding heroes, who are better painters than we are. I have many, many of them, and it is such a thrill to study with someone whose work you admire. And, when, on top of it, they're a great teacher - well, it doesn't get any beter.

One of the things I learned in the first days of workshop experiences is that I had to throw away my preconceived notions about what I would learn. Sometimes it is the unexpected that is the most valuable.

So, Beth, ditch the Ritalin! Personally I am going for a nice burka, maybe something in a lovely indigo (one of my best colors).
