I'm back!!!

Hi everyone.  Just a note to let you know I'm back home and to thank the many people who sent me the birthday and anniversary wishes.  No, I didn't get any painting or sketching done while I was away.  I did do a lot of reading and visited an awesome used book store with a great art section.  I bought a book on figure drawing that I'm hoping will help me with my current project as well as in my future paintings.

I'm truly enjoying this year of experimenting and discovering different things in art.  Starting this blog and meeting so many other artists has become the biggest treat of all.
Thanks again.
