but physically glorious despite the high work
demand. I have so much marking to do that
I can hardly see straight. But this morning the
light that came through the opening in my
bedroom curtains was so compelling that
I had to paint it.

glinting off picture frames, and my favorite
mirror, and leaving the rest of the tableau in
darkness. A challenge to paint, but one I want
to try. So here's the first few steps.

Looks exciting already! It's so fun to have that 'gotta paint it' feeling isn't it? Good luck with your marking.
I agree with Painterchum... it looks exciting already!
Hope you get through the marking with as little stress as possible.

Great beginning! Looks like it is going to be a really fun challenge!
Hi Sally,
I'm enjoying it. I have to take it slowly, but that's okay.

Hi Nicki,
Marking is both stressful and fun. I learn so much. The time constraints are always something to work on. But you have an equally busy life, so you know what I mean.

Hi Linda,
Glad you like it so far. I am enjoying it. I love the mirror, which I purchased in my heavy antique hunting days when my kids were little. Now I have to move some of this stuff out of my house.
Funny.
Take care,
Barbara
