Painting class

Every once in a while it's good to do something that's just for you. And this was it, I enrolled my little self in a painting class to learn ink & oil rouging. The piece itself isn't really my "style" being that it's rather "tole painting for ladies over 50" style vs. my "scare the crap out or potential house buyers with my color choices" type of style. But nonetheless, it was good to learn the technique and I will be able to apply it to something a lot more ME.

Regardless, here it is... rather impressive *IMO considering that even my kids can't tell what my stickmen are doing!
So - what have you done 'JUST FOR YOURSELVES' lately? I'd love to know..

I ate breakfast this morning!

And ummm...the painting is amazing! It actually reminds me of Grandma...she gave the girls a book about birds before we moved away from the coast!

Wow.. I am so impressed with your painting. It looks so professional. I totally agree with you on taking time out to do something for yourself. What have I done latey? Bellydance classes - it's the only way I can motivate myself to do any exercise!
