Hello Beautiful!
Is it spring yet?! Where are you, sister?! I needed warmth and recently took a flower painting class with Christie Herrmann Hawkins. I came out of the class with an acrylic and a watercolor version of bold blooming flowers.

I am a lifelong learner with many classes on my list. I love checking out new teachers, exploring new techniques, getting various tips and tricks from multiple people, and then see how I can fit them into my style. I’m partial to the black outline, just a smidge. Painting with Christie @thesocialeasel brought back warm memories of watching Carol DuVall back in the day before YouTube - does anyone remember Carol?! Priscilla Hauser was a frequent guest, and I loved her decorative art paintings. That’s the first place I remember seeing a black outline of painted flowers. I took a photo of the piece before I added the black line.
Which style do you prefer, white outline (yesterday’s post), black outline, or no outline?
Shout Outs: Christie is a lovely teacher. Austin Kleon, Author of Steal Like an Artist. I read Austin's book once a year.
