Confession is good for the soul



This is what I do when I should be painting.

Messy Studio Tour

Here are the two under paintings that are sitting up there calling my name..."Cara, we're lonesome, come work on us..."

Here's a photo and a memento of my attending a workshop with Ray Vinella
Another photo and memento of a workshop with Amado Pena Jr.
And now for the mess...

My work area..don't be scared...but you have had a tetanus shot haven't you?

My studio was a spare bedroom. The other side of the room had a treadmill and stacks of canvases, some blank and some not. But in this little tight space are my favorite things...my books, photos, important tidbits on my bulletin board (more photos and lots of jokes).

There, and now you know.

Full Moon


Just a little something to be able to say I was painting over the weekend. Actually, this started out as a way to use up a badly gessoed(sp?) canvas for practice and ending up being a neat experience in window frames.

Tomorrow if you promise not to call the health department I will show you what is on my easel as well as a peek at my studio.
