Hailing! And not the icy kind.

One more post before heading off to France on Tuesday where I will be learning to paint figures in pastel (and more) under the tutelage of the amazing Margaret Dyer. Two weeks of painting plus some day excursions to Paris and other local places to break up the studio time! So very excited about this!

I'm going to try to blog from there but will be using my iPad instead of my computer for that, something I've not done before, so this post is kind of a test. Hopefully it will all work out and I'll be able to share photos and descriptions of the fabulous experience I'm about to have.

In the meantime, here is a painting I've almost finished of my daughter hailing a taxi in the rain in New York two weeks ago. Maybe just a tad more tweaking required. Suggestions are welcomed ... there are a few things about it that are still bothering me but sometimes I can't see what they are! Feel free to jump in.
