Commissioned Family Portrait
22×30′
I just finished an amazing and intense 7 weeks working on my Masters of Art Education at the University of Victoria. Whew! What a wonderful journey. It has been fantastic. I met some amazing artists and educators and made some new friends.
During that time I continued to work on a commission of the family above. It is complete and has gone to its new home.
I am heading to Idaho on Sunday to visit family and to teach a workshop on pouring watercolor. I can’t wait to see my children (who are visiting cousins) and to bring what I learned into my teaching practice.
My hope is to tell you more about this and to show you what I have produced. I wanted to do that while I was in school but time ran short each and every day. I even pulled a few all nighters to get the papers done!
But that is another story for another time. . .
Awesome job, Leslie. I bet they will love it.
Dear Leslie,
The painting is lovely. Studying at uni is not easy, but teches us lot and increases networking. I'd like to hear your story on uni.
I have a crash, but hopefully, I can attend a linguistics conference in Oct.
Cheers,Sadami
