Wanted to paint the old mill up at the fish ladder in Port Hope, ON, but it seemed so arduous a task. I thought starting with the front door/porch area might be good practice. Port Hope is full of heritage buildings and I find them completely captivating. This is not exactly how I would have liked, but it was a definite learning experience. I'm finding that painting, as with most art, is typically subjective and there is no right or wrong way. Once the perfectionist is able to let go, the possibilities are endless!
Erato was
one of the
nine muses
and has become
a voice in my head.
These meagre bits of
writing are the result of her
soft whisperings in my ear.
I'm also going to use this medium
to share my paintings as well.
Enjoy your visit. ^_^
