Studying....

I've been watching Marianne Mitchell teaching about mixing colours....very inspiring and informative.   The studio was so damn cold this morning...-8 outside....so i grabbed the paints i needed and have spent some time this morning mixing and mixing...and watching what happens when you mix a cool yellow with a warm red to get an orange, and then a warm yellow and a cool red!!!   Soooo cool!!!

Also been listening to a podcast while i do dishes and get making the turkey soup from the carcass!!!  Nicholas Wilton is my go to podcast right now, i love what he has to say about painting and art making but also about being present to all aspects of your life!   Paying attention to what brings you joy and what you feel like in any particular season, and of course because it's the new year he was focusing on the upcoming year ahead!   So many wise words, i'd highly recommend him!
