I have been taking a short drawing class lately and really enjoy the instructor.  He also controls a pottery class I'm taking.  I say "controls" because everyone does their own thing and he helps you get where you want to go.  How great is that!  No, I'm not changing direction...I just wanted to make some pots for my watercolor brushes.  I have quite a collection of brushes.  So, why not make the pots myself?  

I'm still in critique mode on this latest piece "West of Eleven", but I have signed it.  So, today I will be starting a new painting.  I've taken some photographs worthy of turning into artwork.  I know, I know...your photographs ARE artwork.  Trust me, mine are not.  I should probably take a quick class in photography, but since I use them for reference it doesn't matter how well they turn out.  Back to the brushes.  Here is the quote for today:
