This is my latest painting. It is my fifth from acrylic painting class. Someday it might be fun for me to look at each of my paintings in order to see if I’m making progress. So far, my favorites are the Irises and the Little Girl in Flower Garden, with the latter being my most favorite.

We will start the next painting on Thursday (two days from today). It’s going to be a pumpkin framing a fall scene. It will be a good painting for decorating for Halloween and Thanksgiving.

We’re going to do a gorgeous Christmas painting after that. I wanted to use it to make our Christmas cards for this year, but unfortunately it won’t be complete until December 11th. That’s too late to get the cards printed and in the mail, so we’ll have to wait until next year.

This class is so good for me. Painting with others is fun. Everybody is at a different skill level, and we all learn from each other in addition to what the teacher shows us. I wish the class were two days per week. Since it’s not, I’ll just have to paint at home on my own, but that’s always a crap shoot.
