lundi est le jour pour mon art

On Monday afternoons I first go with
Rachel to her art class.  It seems most
people "do their own thing" and Rachel
walks around helping people create
a more personal piece.  I spend my time
making marks with charcoal on paper.




The others seem fascinated by this process;
starting with one mark, stepping back, adding
another mark, stepping back, on and on until
you know "this is enough."  Then I look at
the paper and voila, she speaks!  I see shapes
emerging and I elaborate on these shapes.
Definitely a right brain exercise.  Seems like
numerous animals inhabit my  subconscious.

And now for my most "normal" one.  This is a photo transfer on canvas with paint.

happy hour

After Rachel's class I follow Brigitte across town to a cultural centre where I enjoy

creating in clay.  More photos to follow.
