Arches Lone Tree

The work has stalled out, but I am searching for answers to problems. New favorite book: Watercolor Mixing: the 12-Hue Method by Christopher Willard.

Into the light of day








Welcome to my blog! All my life the compulsion to create has been a strong one. Now that there are piles of artwork in the basement, it's time that they see the light of day. I'm also allowing a new philosophy to soften my internal critic. It's simple, but works.

1. "Just Paint."
2. Stay connected to what makes me feel joyful about creating, then "just paint."
3. It's all easier said than done then "just paint."
4. Let go of the current painting and start another one.

This series is inspired by the spectacular vistas of Canyonlands and Arches National Park in Utah. I hope you enjoy! Karen
