Jeanne

Hi guys, I spent most of today hanging out painting . I have found that being this pregnant  gives me a valid excuse to just chill out    ( guilt free ). So as I said in my previous post I am taking this class. I have been introduced to Modigliani . I guess I live under a Rock because most people I ask know who he is but I had no idea. I do now.  I googled Modigliani the painter and I found this painting of Jeanne she was his inspiration. So this is my attempt of Jeanne. I like this style and I am going keep playing with this method. One thing about having a blog that I really like is  being able to share my work being able to share makes me want to be better.

I never would have chosen these colors but I love them.  It is different for me but I love it. I have 3 weeks to go before I have baby J and I do not have to work so guess what I will be doing while waiting for my baby boy to arrive. I will hopefully be learning , painting , creating .. Hope your Saturday was good..
I will be back with more soon..

So Very Happy

Happy Monday.. How was your weekend ? I would love to say mine was packed of fun stuff but we  mostly hung out at home watching movies.. We spent lots of time drawing and I cooked some what I thought were really good meals. The Last couple Saturdays I have felt so grateful just to be able to stay home and not drive.. A little boring but its working for me. Its funny how little traditions start working themselves into motion. In our house the biggest room is the master bedroom. It has enough room for me to have a table and set up my art stuff. As soon as I say I am going upstairs to paint my kids say I am coming mom. I love that there we are Isabella is on her I pad playing some creative game.. Christopher is usually reading or watching TV with me. We walk down stairs to go eat together and walk back up.. Let me say that we did go paddle boarding this weekend so I don't feel super guilty about staying home because we got out for most of Sunday. 

This is how I am feeling about me and painting . I feel like I am all over the place. I want to try it all. Collaging pieces and painting girls and I jus love it all. It certainly makes me feel insecure about my stuff. Am I supposed to have all my stuff look alike? Do I have a style ? Is it ok to want to try it all? Who knows? This weekend  I was thinking about something I just love and thats my camera for sure. So I felt like here I am on top of the world with my camera. So very happy ..It was the story I wanted to tell through my little painting.

She looks happy right.. I am feeling Happy and Grateful for what I have and for my ever growing belly..

Its a Happy Monday

Its Monday again does anyone else feel like that went by way to fast. I do.. I had a full weekend. I feel like I should have rested more but I did not. I went to the movies with my dad to see Mudd. I liked the movie and my dad loved it. He said rarely do you get to see a love story from a mans point of view . The actors where all amazing. You cared for all of them by the end of the movie. My girls friend came over and hung out with my family. It had been a long time since my kids had seen her so that was nice. She is so good at making chocolate chip cookies so she make 3 batches for us she also made a cake..Yum

Yesterday I went to Stamping Details in Poway and took my second class by Jaime D. She is so crazy talented. I had so much fun. I love taking classes. I feel like its a day at the spa with girlfriends. My good friend Charlene took the class with me . Everything is more fun with a friend or two. I took Jaimie's but I was afraid to mess up my piece of wood but after yesterday class I came home and started a new girl and I didn't mess anything up. It was a great way to spend a couple of hours .. My sweet dad babysat my kiddos and they swam all afternoon. So everyone was happy.. Have a great week and I will check in soon..
