Studio make-over
Since my laptop was broken and all other computers in the house are much to slow for me, I used my time to read more, to paint more and to do a total make-over of my working space. My studio is small but full of light and with a beautiful view every day of the year.
Painting Dreamy Portraits - 2nd week
Second week of Painting Dreamy Portraits with Olga Furman was already about drawing and painting faces. Watching Olga working was wonderful and I thought that maybe painting faces isn't that hard. When I finally got to work I found that although it's far from being simple, it can be done. Within my abilities, of course. The goal of the week was to paint an angel and I sat with mine for hours.

Painting Dreamy Portraits with Olga Furman
Today finally started art course with Olga Furman that I've been looking for for quite a time. I must admit this is the first on-line course I have ever taken and I didn't know exactly what to expect.
