Commission work today; therefore all you get to see is my palette. HOWEVER, once I get to these tiny brushes it means I’m almost done with it! :) love!! One wonderful thing about spring break is that I have more time to paint, and that’s always good!

Spring Break Abstracts
My business, Color Cat Studios, is two-fold. It often feels like multitudinous-fold. One side is my paintings. I both sell my finished ones and take commissions for what others want me to paint. When people ask me to paint something, the first thing I ask them to do is look at my art and see if they like it, and choose particular works so I know what style they desire. If they don’t like my style I send them elsewhere.
Another side of my business is teaching art. Oh my GOODNESS I LOVE kids! I teach formal classes to kids ages 9-21 and we both love and inspire each other. I’ll also teach adults at art conventions, art gatherings, speak at business gatherings, etc. I absolutely ADORE painting for theater; it’s about the only time I get to paint as big as I want.
Now we come to spring break - whew! I’m really excited and relieved to have a break. It’s time to refresh myself. One way I do this is by working on abstracts. I love this one, done with good old Brusho pigments. These pigments are ... well, pure pigment with no vehicle. I really love these and use them often. Anyway, HAPPY SPRING BREAK!!!
