Along the way in sticking to this general idea for a series, I am learning lots of little helpful techniques and adding to my art knowledge bits and pieces at a time. I love that I make these small discoveries. Everyday there is something new which keeps life fresh and exciting. I can't imagine doing the exact same, safe thing over and over. I am fortunate that I don't have to in order to survive. If you have a choice, I hope you don't settle for "safe".

look forward to each step in your artistic explorations. I am interested in the montage of self portraits; it got me thinking about doing something similar, but with small drawings of family members in the background.
I really can relate to your excitement, I feel the same way about my photography and photo montage work. Here, too, there is a new technique or idea I try to work on -- life is "fresh and exciting" because of this passion. And I hope my work conveys this to my friends and family.
I am SOOOO inspired by you and really look forward to all your posts! You rock!!
Thanks so!

Sage advice!! Probably the best advice anyone could give. I like this next step very much.
I think your piece is finished already! Put down the brushes!!! Am I too late?
Start the same painting but leave this drawing as is!
Love it!
I can't wait to see the results of this painting. It's so interesting.
Tragic. I love it. That describes my studio. I paint in encaustics and I am finding some of your ideas useful. Thanks:) My techniques will be different, of course. But since everything I do is in layers, it transfers. I often make my background, then draw in - as you do.
