I'll check back.<BR/>David's WC book is very challenging-way more food for thought than most WC books out there. Every inch of it is instructional. Also you might want to look at www.handprint.com for tons of inspiring WC info. Classes do help to keep you going-why it's so annoying that DD left us :( But I use this blog as my motivator now-the results vary but it keeps me painting :)<BR/><BR/>Ruby R - Thank you for your comments and stopping by. Not being from Boston I'm not up on those creme pies-I'll check out Google though :)Parisbreakfastshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03558314043814894010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-1153298059881048422006-07-19T04:34:00.000-04:002006-07-19T04:34:00.000-04:00The watercolours are lovely.

I'm always looking for books to help me out on my own watercolours.<BR/><BR/>I really need to find a class. Your post has reminded me that that's what can make a subject really come alive.<BR/><BR/>BTW: thanks for the bbc link.JChevaishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02683339168047479228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-1153270933042837832006-07-18T21:02:00.000-04:002006-07-18T21:02:00.000-04:00Thanks Lynda, How delightful :)Thanks Lynda, How delightful :)Parisbreakfastshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03558314043814894010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-1153248281273850002006-07-18T14:44:00.000-04:002006-07-18T14:44:00.000-04:00Bravo Carol!

I love the fact that you have included work by others in your class and it's nice to see the similarities and differences between your work and theirs. I love the idea of the Xmas party/class.
