Last Painting Class

We are facing lots of lasts this week, as the school year wraps up and friends all go separate ways...some for the summer, some forever. 

Last painting class was today. I am so happy I did this. 

Below my perfectly French (effortlessly glam and cool) partner in painting. 

Below my patient and kind teacher, holding up PB's latest Matisse-inspired study...

Below, the latest version of my piece...I am pleased with the progress although I still need to invest several hours to take it from here to "finished". I hope I can do it without my buddies above.
