It was a hot and muggy day, thick dark clouds were hanging on the sky, but it just couldn’t quite squeeze out a drop of rain. Wished it would just let it pour and cool down the city. Couldn’t quite get myself to do any productive work in this weather, ended up wasting an afternoon surfing the web in my sweltering home studio.
Went to my 2nd oil painting class in the evening, picked up my cheap painting tools and was taught briefly about color theory. The instructor demonstrated painting of an imaginary landscape, really got me excited, looking forward to actually paint my very first oil painting next week!
I’m loving the painting class so far, a deep relief was sensed the moment I stepped into the studio, I could put away (for an hour or two) the worries of life and simply be absorbed in art. I recall this wonderful feeling when I was taking life-drawing classes many years ago.
