Melissa Bolton's branding archetype test is fascinating, and I have only scratched the surface of exploring the uses of this new-found lens for viewing my work and my world.
Off to the town and the MMDJ. Happy Wednesday, All!
Love where this painting is going, look forward to seeing it completed! Have a great rest of the week. xo

ReplyDeleteI had a little peak at Melissa Bolton's test but I'll have paper and pencil in hand this evening. I'll let you know the results. Fascinating stuff.
How was the MMDJ today? I've been on the computer or playing with grand girls today. Not much painting going on these days. xoxo Carole
