The Photoshop class I'm taking is great!  It is really interesting, and I'm being taught much more than I can remember  . . . but in time and with practice, I'm sure it will all come into place.  Here are some pictures from making the first project-- it is for cutting and pasting (from files the teacher provided) -- The butterfly was made first, and then reduced in size so more things could fit in.

Below is a different gray one . . .

Oh, one more thing . . . these can be found in my Etsy fabric art shop, Fuzzlemania, along with an assortment of other brooches and some felt magnets.

Today I'm building this new website . . . and part of it is a blog.  The idea is to write about projects I'm working on, art shows and other events, and show some pictures . . .

So here is a picture to start with.  It is of an oil painting I made in my college painting class.  This was a fun picture to make, and although it was an early assignment in the class, I finished it at the very end of the term, because I had to wait for some parts to dry before painting on top of them; also we were so busy with all the other assignments that mostly it just sat and waited for me for a long time, happily drying.  The final parts I added were the facial expressions. 

The title of this piece is "Pizza Party."
