mother's day

A minute ago, I turned 50. A lifetime ago (it seems) I was a Blue Star Mom with sons serving in Iraq. To ease my mind, I threw myself into painting as a form of personal therapy and growth. I'm a member of the Tennessee Art League and Collaborative Artists Network and some of my paintings can be seen here on my blog, there at www.thecann.org, and also on my website: www.moesse.com. There's also a facebook Fanpage under Moesse the Eclectic Artist if you'd like to keep track there.

Yay! Painting again!

I’ve

been able to unpack, regroup, and yes, even paint in the past few days!

I got into the habit of taking photos with my iphone when I see something I can use for reference… a great excuse to get out there and walk the neighborhood!

I tried this out on one of my Iphone pics, of one of our Orchids in a nice asian style pot. I have a long way to go in terms of perspective, the pot is way out of sync, but I think I did OK on the orchid itself. I have a long way to go, though and from what I understand, the best way to get anywhere, is to just keep painting!
