New Year, New Course!

As the New Year began, so too did my newest online, year-long course from Kara Bullock Art.  We're studying nine different art periods starting with the Renaissance and using inspiration from a piece by Piero della Francesco for our first project.

It is at the first of a year-long class when the work is the greatest.  That is because of course background information and basic technique video tutorials and pdfs that need to be reviewed plus then comes the lesson videos to review and the project to be completed.

So far, I've reviewed the course info, basics tutorials that include a grid technique to more accurately replicate an inspiration image, and three of the seven lesson videos. 

At least I've had some time for this and hope to get through all the videos by next weekend.  I'm bound to get behind quickly with a new lesson coming out each week, but that's ok.  I'm going to try to relax and enjoy this year's ride.

These baskets are a great holiday gifting idea that you can match to family and friends' home decoration color schemes.  They're fun and useful besides.

Highjacked Blog Photo

There are some unscrupulous folks out there who may be using or about to use a photo(s) you've uploaded to an online photo-hosting site. At the time I created a blog, having a URL for a photo uploaded online was the only way to insert a photo in your profile or to create a custom header. There had been no problems for a long while. This morning, however, I did a Google image search for my name and found my photo linked to a totally different blog than my own! It is possible I didn't mark my file with the online photo-hosting site as private, but I didn't expect this to happen. I don't know whether marking it private would have actually averted the situation, but I'm not waiting to find out. I eliminated my membership to that online photo-hosting service today and caution anyone to be careful with uploading images to the internet . If you read the terms of agreement at many sites, you'...
