She was juried into the National Watercolor Society exhibit. I've been following her blog so long that I knew her work from across the room! Great to see it live.Ginny Stileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05398435606793199775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9099572425281663508.post-55796114885092464262008-05-15T17:49:00.000-05:002008-05-15T17:49:00.000-05:00I'm so jealous!

I read her blog, too, and am fascinated with her work. <BR/>I have a full sheet of watercolor paper, staring at me from across the room. I had started a painting on it as a demo for my class a few years ago, and I always thought it was too dark. (The kids liked it, though.) So, now, I'm thinking gesso and texture on it, a la Myrna, and see what I can come up with! <BR/>I wonder how you like the synthetic paper. <BR/>I have tried to avoid those, ever since I used some of that fiberglass paper back in the '70s. My arms itched and it made little cuts on me, everywhere I touched it! A professor had us use that for a painting, and it was not pleasant. Since then, I've tried to stick with more natural materials.<BR/>Love the cowboy hat idea! I've been wanting to do a self portrait in my fuschia straw hat, so this should inspire me to go on and do it!<BR/>Tell Myrna I said "Howdy" from down here in Aggieland. I've written to her a few times, left some comments on her blog, too.<BR/>Have fun!Ceceliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16132398614175975739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9099572425281663508.post-80658428666031474162008-05-15T07:18:00.000-05:002008-05-15T07:18:00.000-05:00Thanks for sharing the workshop, Nancy.
