I am not sure where to begin, except...to just jump in! I may not post daily, but will try to update regularly. It seems to me that blogging is like keeping a diary, and how difficult can that be; children everywhere can do that! So I will give it a try, and I am sure it will sound mundane to some, but I think it will be enjoyable to some as well.

One fact was driven home to me (again) today...artists need to be photographers as well as painters. With much-needed help and a "mini" manual settings lesson from David Darrow, (davethepaintingguy.com), I was finally able to come up with some pretty good photos of paintings. Thanks Dave!

With more help from hubby Mike, and on Susan Carlin's advice (www.susancarlin.com), I was able to resize the photos for uploading here. So here are the first few of the 50 Under $50 series I am painting. Hope you enjoy viewing as much as I enjoyed painting!
