But most importantly have fun while painting.  "Siempre imaginé que el Paraíso sería algún tipo de biblioteca". Jorge Luis Borges.  Inspírate en este reto que utilizar fotos de referencia para pintar.  Utilizaremos fotos de la biblioteca de diferentes décadas como material de referencia.  Pero también damos la bienvenida a ideas abstractas, como pintar lo que significa la biblioteca para ti.  ¿En qué piensas cuando piensas en una biblioteca?  ¿Qué color representa la biblioteca para ti?  ¿Cómo te hace sentir la biblioteca?  Expresa y responde estas preguntas en el lienzo.  Aprende un poco sobre cómo abstraer el tema, las pinceladas y cómo configurar líneas de cuadrícula para pintar.  Pero lo más importante es divertirse mientras pintas.  Winter Reading - Warm Up with a Good Book, Join our Winter Reading Challenge December 6 – February 28.  Curl up with a book this winter!
