crunchy leaves

i have an idea to make more of these, hundreds and thousands. they are like little meditations to me while i am working on them. these are still just under-paintings

i hate drawing, but sometimes i get the fancy to doodle

this is another under-painting… i think i am going to do another panel that will go below it and be a world of roots. or maybe i will just paint over this. not sure how i feel about it yet.

please forgive the poor image quality, i am lazy and don’t want to get a real camera out

this blog is for my own motivation…. to keep painting, keep creating, keep thinking and discovering….

my goal: each month to have at least 2 new images to post, regardless of how ridiculous and horrible i may think they are…. i need to keep moving forward.

being creative has always been part of my breath… in dance, music, paint, wood, fabric, whatever is present…. i am an emotional person and the arts have always been a healthy way for me to express the weather in my soul - calm, stormy, humid or what-have-you

if you happen to wander here feel free to judge, good or bad, whatever is fine with me. this is simply my personal act of devotion to a passion i am trying not to let die.  this is me. katharine. ryalls. artist at-large.
