I painted "Sunflowers" this past weekend at the Southern Vermont Art Center in Manchester, VT while attending a palette knife workshop presented by Cynthia Rosen.
I finished another garden painting when I got back home and will post it this weekend. 

It is energizing and inspiring to attempt new painting techniques. Palette knife painting is so much different than painting with a brush. I also used acrylic paint for their rapid drying properties rather than oil paint which is my primary medium.

What fun! 

Today's Quotation: "It is better by noble boldness to run the risk of being subject to half the evils we anticipate than to remain in cowardly listlessness for fear of what might happen.?
-Herodotus (485 - 425BC) Greek Historian
