This was completely unexpected. I just started scribbling and these shapes developed so I took them farther and it dictated what would come next. My intention is to learn to not plan or dictate to myself what the end result will be and instead trust the process to lead me into a new direction. Kathy T. is my teacher, of sorts, because I listen and follow her example.

This is what I am working on now. It is larger than the other pieces I have been working on lately. The materials are the gesso and pastel method that I have been playing with. Moving from reality to a more representational view has been difficult, frustrating, and extremely rewarding because it feels like progress and growth.
