I went to Chester Nova Scotia for an art lesson with the lovely Emma Fitzgerald, artist and author of several books. I picked up so many cool tips and encouragements. Let the art come out. Talk to yourself like a friend. Don’t worry too much about perspective. (In fact I’m pretty sure Emma said to ignore perspective.) I loved to hear these gentle encouragements. I felt completely comfortable in this class. Unjudged. Unhurried. Lifted up.
Here are some simple works I have done since.





Thanks for joining me on this little adventure into watercolour and ink.

Hello madame artiste. I love the purple roof on the house, and I like all the paintings, and love the color. I need to know – is this your very first time painting ?

Everyday brings opportunity to learn. I remember a big sis who would be constantly teaching me about kindness and empathy…and she still is. Thanks for being here, Annie.
