Hi all...
just wanted to thank you for your patience and let you know what we've been up to. This is the update I just sent out to people waiting on my mini-classes, but I know there are others interested as well...
Some of you know that my husband underwent surgery in April, and I got the world's longest-lasting chest cold, so not a great deal of work got done around here beyond the absolute basics. (I also had a big article to do for Watercolor Artist magazine and an interview I'd promised to give, in addition to our regular orders, so I haven't been a COMPLETE slug!)
He's doing well, and I'm much better, so back to work on new mini-classes and more.*
Hoping to have the Watercolor Pencil Mini up in the next month--watch for it! I'll send an email like this one when it's done, or sign up for my art tip newsletter mailing list, at
http://cathyjohnson.info. (For a while there I was so hoarse I couldn't have made a video you could have understood! I have a voice again now, so full speed ahead. )
After that, It may be the watercolor and ink mini so many of you have asked about. (In the meantime, some people are using my CD, Ink & Wash Workshop, a slide-show type workshop that's been very popular. (It also offers PDFs full of information and suggestions, as well as inspiration from a number of wonderful artists who enjoy the mixture of mediums.
You can find out more about it in my CafePress store, here:
http://www.cafepress.com/cathy_johnson.61122728 I'm hoping to have a new "Elements of Landscape--Trees" CD available before too long, too, also in the popular slide show format. It was almost done when I got my new computer last year, and the new machine didn't like my Windows MovieMaker projects...so I stalled out for a while.
Anyway, that's where we are right now...I'd best get back to work so I DO have something to offer you patient people!
Best--
Kate
