So photos sometimes the only way to gather resources.I'd be interested to see your posts using the Picasso works.

Went to a local church yesterday to lay in a painting - but struggled so much later trying to finish it at home. It's the waste of paint I get annoyed at :>))))Bridget Hunterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12687955539907001586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5553901244643018272.post-91058524983173397032012-03-28T20:00:47.653+01:002012-03-28T20:00:47.653+01:00Thankyou Jean-Baptiste - I'm using photos a lo...Thankyou Jean-Baptiste - I'm using photos a lot just now - its very interesting to twist them into something !!!!Bridget Hunterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12687955539907001586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5553901244643018272.post-66664280602752962142012-03-28T19:57:48.774+01:002012-03-28T19:57:48.774+01:00Hi Desiree - thankyou for commenting.Hi Desiree - thankyou for commenting.Bridget Hunterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12687955539907001586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5553901244643018272.post-31971133057218969282012-03-28T17:38:48.500+01:002012-03-28T17:38:48.500+01:00Thank you for sharing your process.

I'm always impressed with your ability to abstract the landscape while communicating its beauty and your response to it.<br /><br />Some of the best paintings go through many iterations before they are done. It can be a good thing--just not while we're struggling with them!Melindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16793226305585541931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5553901244643018272.post-62331095477881419822012-03-23T00:17:45.973+00:002012-03-23T00:17:45.973+00:00Thanks Bridget.

Absolutely beautiful. My friend took a photo of me on "the" bridge. His house was a huge canvas!Carole Reidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03761259557061105360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5553901244643018272.post-68376184137231153732012-03-22T21:29:54.143+00:002012-03-22T21:29:54.143+00:00This fantastic journey around a painting is really...This fantastic journey around a painting is really rewarding.
