| A STRANGER AMONG US |
I took a little vacation from blogging but not from working! I am getting ready to share a wonderful teaching experience with Anne Bagby in a few weeks and then I am off to the Florida Watercolor Society conference where I will be giving a workshop, doing a demo and some one on one critiques. There will be constant activity and events including their annual exhibit, a trade show, a paint around and a banquet. I have never been to this type of conference and it will be exhilarating. I can't wait!
This painting needs to be framed and shipped before I leave. It was accepted into the 2014 National Watercolor Society National show. As ever, I am very excited to be included this year. With so many excellent artists entering, it is a miracle to be excepted. It is hard to say what will make the cut. I was disappointed that I didn't get into the San Diego WCS International show. All we can do is create a lot of work, set aside those pieces that feel successful and be willing to take a chance, keeping our fingers crossed. I think I should be doing more of this formatting. It is not an original concept but creates an interesting dynamic between the nine faces.
In my next post, I will share some questions to consider when evaluating your painting. It is helpful as a way to take another look at your work after you have stared at it so long you can no longer be objective.

Thanks, Rhonda. I was just checking out your blog post when I received your post. It startled me!
Hi Myrna,
I was at a workshop at Anne Bagby's studio earlier this year and what a treat you're in for. I was there for Lynne Perella's workshop. What a great space and what delightful people Lynne and Anne both are. Wish I could join you!
Congratulations Myrna! Looking forward to your workshop in Florida!
Congratulations Myrna and I do hope you have a wonderful time in Florida.
I saw your name yesterday on the NWS site and was wondering what you submitted. Looking at it, I do admire your painting, style, design and artistic expression!
Outstanding painting, Myrna! So great to get into NWS! Can't wait till your workshop in Nashville!
