School Day #3 - Blogabond

School is glorious! I LOVE the smell of paint....and how it feels when I mix. I have completed 4 studies of our live model....each lasting about 2 hours with a 5 minute break every 1/2 hour so the model can stretch. My brain is exhausted! We are working with a very limited pallet....only 4 colors. I am happy with the work I have done so far, and am looking forward to seeing how my painting changes as time goes on. There are 9 of us students...our teacher and the model who is wonderful. Today we hula hooped during the breaks....I am not a natural!

I love and miss you all so much. I now realize how much comfort I get from you....and I feel very far away. I know how blessed I am to have you all in my life.....my heart is full with thoughts of you.

Send a Compliment

Miss Kim: I love reading your blog. Your trip over was quite the adventure and I love how the universe took care of your luggage for you...
I give you a lot of credit for making faces and gestures to get your description of coffee across. I think it's hilarious you're already entertaining the French. I love the photo of the red shoes and I can almost visualize your wandering around the little town and taking in the the entire experience.
Thoughts are with you and your paintings rock...take care my friend, Peggy.

LOML,

I MAY be biased... But your painting was way the best! I love it. I must be really special to have hooked up with such a talented person:) I hope you are able to post photos of more of your work.

Love you

Kim, I love reading your entries because you make me laugh out loud with your great sense of humor and truths about life and about yourself. I miss you soooo much! Seeing your photos and reading about what you're experiencing brings back so many wonderful memories about my trip to Paris, things that I had forgotten like the beauty of the cobblestone streets and the open affection of people in love, it makes me smile. I don't have to tell you to take it all in and enjoy it, you cant' keep yourself from doing that.

Your painting is so beautiful! I can't wait to see more.

I think about you every day and wonder what incredible things you'll be doing. Know that you are always in my heart, I love you!
