more minis

I began listening to a new audio book, Swan Thieves by Elizabeth Kostova, yesterday while painting some tiny seascapes. It's about a psychiatrist who is a painter; so far it's quite good, though I've only listened to the first disc.  Usually I can tell after about 1/2 hour of listening whether or not it's for me...so happy to say, I'll be sticking with this one.
I really enjoy painting these blocks, moving from themes of beach houses, farmyards, the sea.

  5. P.S. The book sounds interesting. What kind of genre is it?

  6. Hi Wendy, i think I would say the book's genre is 'drama'.It's about a doctor/artist's involvement in unravelling a mystery to do with the impressionist era while treating a mentally ill artist.
