Painting
Its been years since I actually took out a paintbrush and painted. I suppose have been more focused on printmaking - or maybe thats just an excuse! I even have large canvases that must be covered in cobwebs by now, they have been sitting around waiting to be used for so long. I think thats what has daunted me - seeing these big canvases and not knowing where to start or what to do with them.
So yesterday I went and bought some small A5 size boards and a table easel. I figure that I might be better off starting small and building up to the bigger size. I also feel happier experimenting small. There is something about spending ages painting only to discover that you actually hate what you have done, I think this is my stumbling block.
I still have to replenish my paint supplies but watch this space...
