PRE-ADVENTURE HOMEWORK

Only two more days until my New Braunfels art adventure with Elizabeth St. Hilaire begins. Guess it's time to get crackin' on those pre-class assignments she gave us, huh? Nothing like waiting until the last minute!

For our first assignment, everyone in the class must paint a simple apple on a 12x12 canvas, which we will later cover with a collage of our hand-painted papers. Then, time allowing, we can work on a project of our own choosing. I'm thinking it might be fun to do a collaged version of this...

the toucan mother-in-law Theda made for us when she got a wild hair to switch from painting to wood-carving sometime in her late 60s or early 70s.

Wish me luck!
