This is my second painting from Abbey's workshop. Painted in natural lighting, the little baseball provided good practice for me. Whites, shadows, highlights...all of the things that trouble me. Abbey makes them all look so easy! I am still thinking about her magical brushwork, and I will forever. If you have a chance to attend one of her workshops, please do. Her incredible talent, gentle nature and fun sense of humor make for an unforgettable experience. It was a great week!

This is wonderful! So good I'd be afraid to take Abbey's class - knowing I couldn't do as well as THIS!
Wow! This is wonderful Darla!!
Darla., this painting is exquisite! The shadows, highlights, and details on the baseball are so impressive. I'm glad you had the opportunity to paint with Abbey, and my friend Debbie.
an AMAZING piece, Darla! I can almost feel the texture in the ball.
You succeeded with every detail!!
Beautiful Darla, such detail on this baseball, it's gorgeous!
