It was good to have the painting class starting back up again. Another of our old friends from Studio 2 signed up for the class this session. These are the kind of techniques that she loves, and I know she’ll enjoy the class, too.
The class started off about the same as last session, with watching a demo and learning how to do a “pour”. It’s always good to have a refresher. Next time, she’s going to set up a still life, and we’ll pick a section from it to draw loosely, and use that as a basis for a painting. Also, we’re going to learn how to make a “stamp” (the rubber thing that you put paint on, then stamp on the paper for designs.). That’s an exciting skill to learn.
I had lunch with Vicki at her house, then headed for home. It makes for a long day, but a very satisfying day.

Amazing trees in Na Prom.

Making a stamp, hmmm. I hope it's easier than what I learned.
I don't remember whether it was school or Scouts. We were supposed to cut a potato in two and carve a design into the cut surface. Then you dip the potato into the ink and press it on paper.
I don't recall its ending well. (It might have been guilt about wasting a potato.)
