Playing with my Muse and Color
Introducing Pixie Star! She showed up to help me along in my creative endeavors….

| Ooh! Pixie Star loves being surrounded by color! |
Pixee Star and I have been playing around with my color palette. Those of you who know me, know that I am obsessed with color and watercolor is my favorite medium. In preparing for my All About Color class that I am teaching in my Bend, Oregon Studio, I took a closer look at the yellows on my palette. My goal was to have the warmest yellow and the coolest yellow available. I am happy to announce that I found a cooler yellow than I already had! It is the Daniel Smith Lemon Yellow. It is bright, fresh, and semi-transparent. Next I will try using it in triad and tetrad mixes. If I come up with something great, I will let you know!
Here are some photos from my Color Class. There is some serious color study going on!

I love this J…you know you transfer this love to your students immediately and I would still rather play with my paltette than paint a barn…That UK flag on your side bar is me… I am in London for 3 weeks and spent the day with Lynne Seaman out in Dulwich Tuesday. I met her through your online class and we have been back and forth a few times. I will try to post a colorful little watercolor book she did that is very much in tune with what we have learned from you in your color classes. Always enjoy your posts. I have my tiny watercolor journal kit packed in my train bag as I go off by myself over here next Monday for 10 days… also a few pages of your book for reminders! Thank you!
dont' say a way to post a picture but may put it on the FB pages..
Hi Pat, I don't know if you will see this message but I really appreciate hearing from you and glad that you still read my blog! I love hearing that you are still painting and enjoying it. Thanks for the update! Jacqueline
