"I did these pastel paintings about six years ago in college. They were my final assignment in Drawing III class. The rules, create a series of two using items picked out of a grab bag for inspiration. I’d never done a series before and I’d never used pastels. Needless to say, I was a little anxious about how things were going to turn out. As you can see, I picked a candle and a roll of ribbon. The pastels I used were Rembrandt Soft Half Pastels that we were required to buy for the class. I really don’t know how the work came together in my mind. The candle made me think of time and wind. I did a few thumbnails and everything seemed to just fall together. I decided to draw a picture of life."

"We're looking forward to a lecture this coming Tuesday by Peter Trippi discussing the Victorian academician J.W. Waterhouse (1849-1917) and what he has learned while organizing Waterhouse's international touring retrospective, now on view at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts through February 7."

Thanks, Chaz. I'm going through them now. The problem I'm having, though, is my follower counts haven't changed in MONTHS.

LOL! See what I'm saying? FRUSTRATING! With all the money they've raised they should have a decent help desk.

"The title of this painting stems from Psalm 139 as this painting became a meditation for me on my pregnancy. The miracle and wonder at the life growing in me. Hidden in the darkness of my body. I am around 24 weeks now and my belly is already so big, I wonder how I'll make it til the end! It's amazing how much faster we pop out the second time around."

I hope you're not congradsing me. I just shared this little tidbit, I didn't do it! The painting, or the getting pregnant, but thanks for sharing the verse. That's really nice!
