Beginning Painting

I started creating digital collages a few years ago, which initially consisted of paper and images on paper.  But recently I have started to incorporate acrylic and gouache paints into my work.  So I thought it would be a good idea to take a class to learn the basics about painting.  If I decide to contnue beyond this introductory class, I would like to explore abstract painting.  There is something intuitive and spiritual about this style of painting that I find especially appealing.

I had been procrastinating about creating this blog, especially since I started keeping a painting journal.  But tonight Professor Kato took the time after class to nudge me forward and we created my blog right in the class/art studio.  So now I'm finally up and running!   Thanks Professor Kato!
