Just in!New book written by Diana Trout is here!
It's all about mixed media techniques for "free expression".
One of the first things that Diana writes is
"forget about the labels such as artist or writer"
Just do it... no pressure to "be an artist".

I like the matte feel of the paper and I enjoyed
deciphering her scribbles around

no frills approach to putting the paint down.
And, the side dish of encouragement
goes a long way.
