creativity


I've been painting and sketching quite a bit this fall, it's so fun!  Anyway, this is my latest painting... I had a loose idea of what I was going for, and somehow it morphed into an abstract... well, explosion of color... my only goal was for something that had color and cheerfulness to it.   Sometimes you just have to paint, you just have to take that risk and step out there.... and see what comes out.  Often I wait to be inspired before jumping onto the canvas, but other times it's fun to just go for it.  With oils, you can always paint over it if you don't like it.   It's a very forgiving medium.
