This was such a fun and easy way to get a paintbrush back in my hand. I loved Lisa's energy and attitude that there is no right or wrong way--whatever works for you is good enough!

This really sparked ideas. I have two sketchbooks that I would go back and forth with these color /shape concepts. It is helpful when I get working on a big canvas.
Thank you, Lisa!!
