Trying Something New

I've been playing around with paint this summer. I expressed a wish, a few years ago, to someday take a painting class. This summer, the Krasl art center in town was offering a class. I thought it was too decadent to sign up for, but Nate, being such an awesome guy, signed me up for it without telling me. So for Wednesdays in June, I enjoyed two hours in the evening playing around with paint. Here are a few of the creations I came up with.


This is Tosi's, the coffee shop my family loves to visit.




This is the Dairy Korner, another landmark that the Harrmanns love -- Cheap ice cream cones and just a short walk from our house, you can't beat that!




Finally ,this is a blurry shot of Lake Michigan just off the shore of Silver Beach last 4th of July. I love how the lake looks like a sea of floating lights and the lighthouse glimmers ... I just HAD to try and paint it!
