One of the techniques I learned from Connie Hozvicka in the BIG class was Shape. The idea is to just show up in front of your big canvas and, using any color, just start painting a shape.
Then add another color. By this time in the process I had started feeling pretty free. I thought, "Why not a bit of scribble?" Before I knew it, I had this:
Did we have fun, or what? This was a wonderful excercise to loosen up. It made me ready to try a canvas next. You should try it; you'll like it.
That is wonderful!! Oh, I gotta try that. Love the freeness, the fun colors. Nelda, run with this. I think it's calling your name. It's FUN!

The moving of brush and paint, it makes the inner part of us stir also. There have been times when people said the word paint a certain way that even moved me.
Nice to come by and say hellow to you!
