Doodled Painting

Here is a painted doodle that I had been playing with for awhile.  I think I like the cropped images better!  It's one of those paintings that I had in progress for so long, I just can't look at it anymore. 

Are you up for a challenge?  Check out Dina Wakley's "Out of the Journal" challenge where you are encouraged to paint on canvases! 

Also check out Paint Party Friday if you like painting!

Welcome

Welcome to everyone who is visiting my blog from Seth Apter's The Pulse.  I am shown there on the Sunday Style File post this week.

I would like to introduce myself to anyone who is new to my blog.  My name is Marcia Beckett and I am an elementary art teacher in Wisconsin. 

My other blog is dedicated to my art teaching career and is called  Vivid Layers.  On that blog,  I post all kinds of lesson plans and tips for teaching elementary school art.   Personally, I create lots of art in my free time.  I enjoy watercolor painting, doodling, lettering, acrylic painting and mixed media collage.  Here are a few samples of my artwork!  You can click on the links at the top of my blog to see other art I have made.
