Getting it all figured out

There's so much more to blogging than just 'blogging' your thoughts onto the computer. There's "what am I going to say today'. Then there's "what template shall I use", and "how do I link it to this or that?". "How do I customize it myself" is frustrating for me, because I do not know 'html'. I want my blog to look like 'me', but if you do not know how to do that, well, you have to make do. I guess I will have to work on my friends who can do html, and THEY can design a template for me!! haha... that's SO much easier, don't you think?

Then next, I have to figure out how to link it to my facebook, and this will ONLY be my art blog. the other one turned into a personal venting, and I have decided not to go that route with this. Art, and only art. Going to see how this pans out!!! I am excited to share my journeys on each canvas with you all, though words cannot convey the feeling I get when I am into my own world of paint and canvas!!! But, you will get a glimpse, anyway, when I get it all figured out!!

'the cat'


"The cat" is a current leopard that I am working on. This morning, I have finally made her cheek on the left side look how I want it, and am hoping to get her face completed this afternoon. I have been toying with background ideas and might work on that if I have enough time as well. I am not happy with the boring background as it is, and have some ideas. I am so excited to continue it. I will post another progress 'report' shortly. I do not yet have a title, but once the background comes out, maybe I will have one!! Cats have always been challenging to me, but it's always been all in my head! This one has fun challenges and I am determined to get the picture I have in my head on the canvas!!! It is impossible to convey the joy of watching a painting emerge from the canvas....even if it poses challenges along the way!!
Until next time!!!!..........
