Hi Simone, happy to see you! Yes, BIG! I am concurrently reading a lovely book about writing that is supporting my engagement with painting : )

Carol, I hereby give a happy shout-out to you for sending me a Pauline Agnew video about mark making with charcoal. Fired me right up! Thank you!

Love your marks Dotty! Thick, thin. Dry, wet. Rough, smooth. Fun, fun, fun! Enjoy, my friend!

Yup, all dressed up and ready to go again—way fun making those marks and getting my hands a royal mess with charcoal. Thx, Jen!
