How did seven months happen already? Time flies, they say, when you're having fun. Mr. AL and I have been having lots of fun. I've been busy in the studio, and Mr. AL has been carving like crazy. Some days, he doesn't even stop for lunch.
Did you know I post Friday Progress Reports on Instagram of AL's carvings? Yep, I do. Every Friday, I film a 20-30 second video and publish it on our Instagram Page.
And that's about all I've been doing with Instagram these days. It's summertime! I'd rather be outside or inside painting. Mr. Al would rather be outside or carving, although mainly carving.
And so, we won't be writing a blog/newsletter until September. Gonna take August off. You can still find us on Instagram or Facebook. I haven't been posting many paintings, but you are guaranteed a Friday Progress Report for the rest of July, but can't guarantee August.
Speaking of paintings...here are a few of the one's I have been working on. They are currently taped to my "thinking wall." They are done, but not "officially done." I like to look at them for a spell to see if I want to do something more with them. I'm still not satisfied with the two horses, especailly the one on the left. His mane is way to tidy. The kitty and the bear (scroll to the right to see the bear) are my first attempts with gouache. It is an interesting medium.
I'm really into bears right now. I've been watching them fishing on Explore.org and taking screenshots. I've got some goodies lined up.
Anyway....Happy Summering!
