Good to Get Back

Mikki BriskMay 4, 2016Art Creativity Life Painting

    My painting teacher/mentor is back from various travels. Finally! He’s been away for a month and I’ve sorely missed him and his studio.   I’ve become habituated to painting class and its effects. It’s a great stress-reducer. I…

Behind the Curtain – Session 4

Mikki BriskMarch 11, 2016Art Creativity Painting

    Ah… Progress.   So this last session found me getting rid of the “toilet” beneath the upside-down-man’s butt and now it’s a stone post. I also made some progress on the left side, which is tricky. That area…
