Where does the time go....

As we continue in this strange world, are you noticing that time has lost something..... day after day....everything the same.....just going to the grocery store seems to be a big activity.  I know that it's different for those with children at home, or those who have been able to continue working.  But as a larger group......we're just watching time go by.

I can hardly believe that here we are at the beginning of August.  Summer half over.  Only a few more weeks until 'school' begins again.  I thought that I would possibly try teaching classes this summer, but realized that the logistics of COVID protocol really do not fit in my classroom space.....unless we wear facemasks for the 2 hour session, or I put up some sort of plexiglass screens between each desk.  But for now, I've decided to just continue 'the resting'.  Hopefully some of my students will be able to paint occasionally.  I did send out a few video lessons a couple of months ago, but there are also countless excellent videos on You Tube.   Although some have styles very different from what I do, here are some that I enjoy watching:

Birgit O'Connor
Maria Raczynska
Cafe Watercolour
Rick Surowicz
Laurel Hart
Watercolor Quest
Grant Fuller
The Mind of Watercolour
James Gurney
Noelle Curtis Art
Anna Mason Art
Candice Leyland Art
There are several more that I occasionally watch.  Take some time...in your 'spare time' and have a look at some of these.  You might enjoy them too!

Here are some 'summer' paintings to enjoy while we're still in summer :)
