This year, on my trip to Italy, I took the Cup Easel along with me as the only watercolor setup available to me. I really got to put it through the paces. Lets get into the nitty gritty with an old fashioned product review!

The free demo I did yesterday is up on Youtube, and you can check it out. Learn about making notans and applying them to your painting process.

This coming Monday, I’ll be doing a free zoom demo at 11 am PST. It’s going to be all about notans, but I’m going to try something new. I’m going to start at the end, and go backwards through my process. Let me explain! :)

I’m going to share about my Italy trip in an upcoming post, but today I wanted to talk about a common issue lots of painters face (myself amongst them)—getting back into it after an extended break.

I’m back in my ol’ stompin’ grounds for one month only!! If you missed my show last month at my Open Studio, good news— I have the pleasure to do a follow up show at the Benicia Plein Air Gallery for the month of June. Read below to find out about my free zoom demo, the reception, and more.

In January, I ran a daily painting challenge in my free Facebook group. Lets check out the best of the results and learn about what comes next!
