I will taking two art classes one in water color painting the other in acrylic painting, this summer I will start. I am going to try and spend more time creating art this year.

   Anyway I believe I am accomplishing what I set out to do that is to re-develop creative art skills, of course I can not spend a lot of time yet creating art but once I complete renovation of my Basement I will have the art work space, I am going to try pottery, yes, I will be in the market for a Potters Wheel. It's been less than a year and I could only create 11 art works, so, I will keep practicing art until I put in a more spacious work space.

   I recently posted a photo of another version of my painting I titled, "Suppression Again". I painted another version is because the original was damaged from harsh environments, so, I painted another version.

 I posted in 2 parts because of the image size a photograph of my Great Grandfather playing the Harp while my Father watches, the next post is an article about my Great Grandfather as an artist, his career goes back a long way, many of artists in my family. Why I post this article is because there are those who say derogatory things because of my Italian heritage, I just wanted to say in my DEFENSE that much of my Italian heritage were artists.

 I posted a recent sketch, my 11th art piece, it's been many years since I have drawn anything, it take time to re-develop art skills, I will practice as much as I can. Spring is here I have a number of repair projects to do.

   I posted my 10th art work in many years, today is March 13, 2015, this art work is a sketch using pencil, water colors and acrylic on paper, it's described to be a female character "fictitious" with a yellow flower, untitled.   

   I am still practicing with sketching and painting, it's been many years, I posted below at this Blog my 8th painting in many years I titled "Flower in Vase", finished today, I do need to use more paint and pastel on my next painting!
