I take a drawing and painting class on Saturday mornings. It's a 2.5 hour class, but we really only get about 2 hours tops of actual painting. And I never feel like I leave with a finished painting. This one comes close. I had a lot of fun. Very loose and fast.

Just wanted to share.

I don't know why it's turned sideways; the original isn't. Let me try again.

That is better than Bob Ross. I don't mean to step on any ones toes but when you said drawing and painting class I pictured a Bob Ross style - cookie-cutter- pretty landscape. What is the point of painting if you are just copying someone else's work?
But yours is original, to me that is what "art" is.

PS - I love Bob Ross, someone on another board I read signs their posts, WWBRD - what would Bob Ross do? Paint a happy little tree.

God Bless.
