  3. Great art. I seem to remember hearing about Farrah Fawcett doing what you are seen doing in your bathing suit, only she was naked. Ever try? Thanks for sharing. Good luck with the editing.

  7. Wow! This is all fantastic! Love that you used to stretch canvas in your bathing suit. What a fun way to do something you love. I haven't taken an art class since the fifth grade, which is probably okay because I stink at art. even my stick figures need labels to know what they are.

  8. Thank you everyone for your comments on my art. Much appreciated!

    Robyn: No, I never did try sloshing my body around in it. At the time it was all very much oils I worked with, and its so difficult to get off the skin. The magic for me is in the paint brush or sponges. I did try a few Pollock styles, with throwing paint from a ladder a few times. That was fun.
