Really nice! I told myself that I'd buy a big canvass and paint my own art to hang on my walls. (I'm no artist but I'd feel better about my own art hanging on my walls...even if they're very abstract : )
j: I dunno all these 'learn to paint/draw' artists make it seem so easy. In the mean time I draw stick people, flowers and trees. I don't think I can sketch a whale unless it's a stick whale (guess who was crappy in Picturenary? As my friend said, N's horses, dogs, cats and bird are all the same animals {Sadly it's true}). I've seen an 'artist' friend's work and thought they all looked like crap but he was so proud. Still don't know what 'art' is. -N
I think maybe I could do something abstract too, Susan. Been looking at some YouTube videos and am now wondering if a could create some background images for greeting cards. That might be easy enough, no?
For real, Aunty!! Did Fay ever show you her painting?
Me too, N . . . but I really liked this video. It was soothing to me . . . and I liked the transparency of the paint. I went to Ross this afternoon and got me some paint. I need a good brush now.

My friend Tim sends me emails of funny saying, cartoons, etc. which are

I'm not good at painting...although I wish I was.
I wish I was too, Mmiissee.
This was such fun to watch. Made me want to pick up a brush and play with some color.
Kay, I've been looking for cheap supplies (can get expensive) and am gonna start fussing around soon.
