Just paint!!!!!!

I recently took an abstract painting class. The instructor was Linda Rothchild Ollis and for three days she bent my watercolor brain into a pretzel! I admit I was skeptical at first that the only thing I would get out of it was a better understanding of design. I was not prepared to actually like some of the paintings. Her work was reflective and showed great depth. She skillfully guided us through uncharted waters, exposing us to seemingly random techniques with surprising results. Is it legal to have this much fun? I guess if you can't have fun, why paint, right? Here are some of my workshop pieces.......look for more abstract to come.
