Adventure Is Out There

This is my 5th full painting. I promise the girl has legs; it is just so dark... I'm new at this, so maybe it is taking the easy way out doing a lot of silhouettes, but I really like how they look!

-A girl, 2 birds, a cat and a whole world to explore.-

My mom gave me the best compliment. She said this should be in a children's storybook. Could you see it? Or is she just being "a mom?" :)

[Title came from a scene in the Up movie, but my painting has nothing to do with Up.]

Watercolor on 140LB 9x12 paper, trimmed down to fit in my painting binder.

Dame Margaret Drabble is in my city this morning. She is charming and she talks about short stories.

Novel take time. Short story is fast and written within a short time.

"Get it off her chest" is how she write short story.

What inspired her to be a writer because she is a reader. She wanted to be an actress. No one ask her about her sister A S Byatt.
