Our Favorite Artist at Misty's Prompt

I don't have a favorite artist, it's like trying to pick a favorite color. My favorite artist that is helping many of us right now...guess who!! Just in case one might not guess...that would be Misty Mawn.

Interesting If Nothing Else!




Well Now, Just overnight I grew more hair and got rid of my glasses! This is from looking at a catalog girl. just had to do something far and away from my other attempts. A joyful and happy 8th day at Misty's party (which is much more meaningful to me than that) Thank you, Misty.

Up Early For Me


Now this is just true bravery or stupidity (I'm willing today) to post this. And Misty, if you ever happen to read this...I'm moving on and counting this as 6 portraits, counting the ones i tried. i need a teacher, didn't know where to start or finish or what medium would work etc!
But I learned a lot of things, thank you<: misty. Laughingly, wanda
