Casey Klahn has recently started up a facebook painting challenge based on a photo that he posts. I have followed Casey’s blog for a number of years and I really appreciate his insight. I happened across his blog yesterday where he posted his latest photo, and I was really drawn to the image so I decided to give it a try.

Last year I stopped participating in the Virtual Paintout and I originally thought it was because I only wanted to work from my own material. I have thought about it further and I now believe that I didn’t get the sense of community that I was looking for. I think this group, being set up strictly on facebook and with Casey’s analysis, will be a different experience for me.
