Karen, I love your landscape videos. They are so helpful in encouraging me to loosen up! So enjoyable.

This is really great. I really like the mistiness in the distance. It gives the whole scene an atmospheric mood which i personally like. Fantastic job here.

I love the way you created this and let the colors run. I don't think I have ever used that much pigment on a painting. I'm excited to try it and see what happens. Thank you. Love the texture the cling wrap made.
