Truth be told, I was enjoying the summer. I haven't had this beautiful of a summer ever since I left Montreal several years ago. And since the weather was happening, I was not going to miss a moment of it by being indoors. I did at one point give the en-plein-air thing a go. I don't like dust and bugs in the paint, so that totally didn't work for me. I did do a few drawings. But only a few.August came along and I realized that I wanted the Mshmsh team back together and working again. So thanks to Facebook, Colby got the message and started drawing like a mad man (or little boy since that is what he is). I still slacked off for a few weeks, slowly preparing canvases and deciding which paintings I wanted to start with. Finally, this labour day weekend, I started working like a mad woman (because I am and because it was raining outside and I didn't really feel like being out in the rain), I started painting. The following are the result of a 3 day weekend with a few sidebars along the way.

Mshy#7, acrylic on canvas, 24"x30"I have just finished stretching a few more canvases and prepping them. Now is the time to get some more paintings done. I want to become a painting machine and forget about science. That is what Mshmsh does for me at this time. And that is just where I am now!
