Autumn has arrived at my home on Hawk's Hill, and I recently spent a morning painting the first splashes of color adorning our Grandmother Sugar Maple tree. This ancient tree brings beauty to our lives in any season, but particularly this time of year.
My recent lessons with Pittsburgh artist Yelena Lamm taught me so much about how to approach painting landscapes, how to control edges, and how to see colors. What a pleasure to dive into painting this scene with a new focus and new skills! Many thanks to Yelena for her instruction and the inspiration it brought me.
Autumn is a great time to take a class and pick up new skills. Art classes are a terrific way to bring focus to your art practice and to gain momentum -- and to connect with other artists.
