I've been playing around with a new watercolor technique that Mary Jane Begin demonstrated at Kindling Words. That's right watercolor... She uses a modified old master technique that allows layering... I'm in love.

Kindling Words West

I've just returned from Kindling Words West, an inspiring week at Ghost Ranch Abiquiu in New Mexico.

I went with the hopes of kick starting some writing projects, and with the insight of Tim Wynn-Jones I did. I also learned an amazing amount from Mary Jane Begin who teaches color at RISD.

It was an incredible opportunity to be surrounded by desert light and fine friends.
