Thank you so much!!! I'm delighted that they inspire you!!! The cake you see is actually a slice of cinnamon bread toasted. It's very like a cinnamon roll but in a loaf form which can be sliced and used as toast.
I'm delighted you enjoyed my newsletter!! Thank you!! And the deliciousness on my plate is indeed yummy! It's a cinnamon bread loaf that we often slice and serve as breakfast toast. 😊💚
I loved your discussion of "true colors." There is so much about visual forms of expression that I don't know! I look forward to more tree studies . . .
Thank you!! I'm glad you liked my discussion of color!! I'm delighted that you look forward to more trees from me!! I'm planning to do some tree-drawing research today at the library... wish me luck!!
I wish I could’ve seen the board with all of the colored cards! I love the way you think about color. It inspires me to go deeper in thinking about the way I’m working.
I wish you could have seen my professor's board with all of the cards too! It made a huge impression on me. Since then I approach thinking about color when I make art as like thinking about the quality of the ingredients when I cook. That color class really rocked my world. Glad to hear my newsletter inspires you! You do good work!! Keep it up!! We're in this creative life together!
I enjoy watching these being created and posted as well as seeing what you say about them. Please keep up the good work!
Oh!! Thank you so much!!! What you said means the world to me!!! Thank you!!!!!! 💚💚💚💚
I love your sketches and the writing next to them. I’m so I inspired by them. What is that cake? It looks delicious.

The color cards are a great example of how to shift perception and expectation! Maybe I need an art class 🎨
Yes, the color class was great!! Also good about color shifts and perception is the book Nature's Palette a color reference for the natural world by Patrick Baty ... a fascinating look at the same colors in many different ways... anyway here's a link with more info. https://www.thriftbooks.com/w/natures-palette-a-color-reference-system-from-the-natural-world_patrick-baty/27141247/item/44645744/?srsltid=AfmBOopVMV1qzAeUTB9p1shgcVqcvZlY3Yt8B_d1mrNPrKKYlw9_5kGFUZM#idiq=44645744&edition=58136601
Such a gorgeous post - I've learned so much! Thanks, Sue! 😊
(Side note, not art-related: whatever that is on your plate looks absolutely delicious!)

I wish I could heart images...
Awww well you just put a heart and a smile in my heart!!! 💚😊💚 And thank you!!!!
I love your work ^^
it's so kewl!
I can barely paint xD
I love the names of paint colors. Alizarin crimson, cerilean blue, gamboge, etc. Poetry as well as pigment.
That's exactly true what you say!!! Poetry as well as pigment!!
Amazing as per usual! I love the idea of season changes not just in regards to the leaves, but in various palettes and moods...
It is a wonderful way to explore and play 😊💚

Good luck!
Thank you!!! I'm especially puzzled about how to draw birch trees... hope I can find a book re. 🤞
Do you have birches in your area of the country? Our white birches grow individually and also in a tight clump.
Yes, lots of birches here - in clumps like you say and in pairs or individuals. There's a pair across the street from us that I hope to draw....
Wonderful! I look forward to seeing the results.
Love both those cat sketches, and the tree studies.
Thank you so much!! I'll do my best to keep it up!!
