Whew! We've had a full first day. I'm pondering all of the the ideas and thinking about what are my ideas about painting. Oh, the beauty of the simplified composition! More to come tomorrow!

I follow Casey's blog. Love the keep it simple. It's so easy to get carried away on the unneccesary. This one is simple and sensual.

How fun to host Casey's pastel workshop in your studio! And what a beautiful, light-filled and spacious studio it is :).

Very nice painting, too!

good work, Kvan! Where are the people at the workshop? Are they camera shy? Your studio looks inviting :)

Pam -- thank you! Keeping it simple is a challenge, but worth it in the end.

Sonya -- you're right, it's been a great weekend with Casey and the other participants. Thanks about the painting!

Celeste -- my studio was full of busy artists and their energy and stuff. I loved it! Thanks for looking in.
