I haven't painted in over a year now, but hoping to go back to art group this September to see if that will get me motivated again. Hitty Madge is the artist here at Rose Cottage, not sure if any of the lads here are interested yet. It is good to have a hobby and also learn about it. You've learnt about some good artists I see.

So maybe just paint using the colours as inspiration for the forms and patterns that you make and see what emerges.DollMumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07655612985882320920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7016776795024488755.post-29743665506362078452018-08-27T03:25:31.743-07:002018-08-27T03:25:31.743-07:00What a fantastic (and educational) post this is an...What a fantastic (and educational) post this is and SO very 'up my street' as I unfortunately know Pete's feeling of hesitation before putting that first stroke to a blank canvas. <br /><br />Like them I think that it's really good to have a hobby'activity/sport and so always used to encourage my many classes of school children to collect items or enrol in after school clubs/groups or activities to make new friends and become more socially 'rounded.'<br /><br />BTW. My Brood Remainers and I find your blogposts delightfully unique/individual and so interesting... whilst being such fun.

Sometimes you see something and think ..yes I want to do that! then something else crosses your path and your eyes turn to that...<br />So that when you finally settle .. well then you have to decide what to do!You have the paper.. you have the paints.. you have the brush...you have the apron... so now you just need an idea! Mmmm maybe you could paint something you really really like? good luck deciding. Deehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17421536902399459683noreply@blogger.com
