My 2019 goal was to create more art, and I’ve been following up on this by taking Art Classes at Art League Houston, drawing on my iPad, and sketching and time I can.
Over the year, I’ve taken art classes focusing on fundamentals of drawing (shapes, hues, colors) as well as oil painting. There was a lot of prep and set up work that goes into Oil Painting, that makes me want to spend some time, have a dedicated space to paint, and opportunity to keep coming back to the same piece.
Since I live a mobile, millennial, traveling life, I’ve found it easiest to practice art just by having my sketch pad handy. I’ve filled 2 books of sketches so far this year, and look forward to taking more classes around pottery and watercolor.
