Sixty-something woman shares ruminations as she plys the latter third of her life with the caveat that age entitles her to be absolutely outrageous whenever possible.
"We Three"

Paper bags and boxes. Why not?
Teachers have such interesting ideas. Like painting these rather mundane and not very scenic objects. Okay, it was a challenge, and I am not entirely satisfied with the three paintings I labored over, but this one comes closest to something I would show to everyone. Watercolors are a very contrary medium. They run and smear and make big honking watermarks. Well, they do for me, because I have no patience to wait for one area to dry before I start the next. And I actually don't like the stark look of one dried area abutting another, anyway. I like complexity, and that means some messiness, right? Well, have done this homework, now for the drawing stuff. Gee. School is such a laborious pursuit!
