September is here, which means school is back in session for my family. Call me nostalgic, but I thought it would be fun to extend the summer just a bit with a trip to the beautiful Plitvice Lakes of Croatia. I visited this beautiful paradise a couple of years ago on a painting trip, and I’d love to take you there. 

Let’s take a boat ride on the crystal-clear water, with a blue-green view that will afford us the opportunity to use one of my favorite colors as we paint this scene…turquoise! 

As we explore the scene together, it’s a perfect opportunity to discuss how to use shapes to design a strong composition. There’s such power in simplicity, so we can let our design take center stage.  

Join me for a final splash of summer here in September!
