First Painting With Wyanne

I'm taking an online painting class by Wyanne. She is such an inspirational artist who has battled throat cancer during the past year. (I had a cousin who lost her battle to throat cancer several years ago after having three bouts with it, so when I saw Wyanne offering her class, I signed up even though I couldn't afford it.) Anyhoo, our first painting was about paths. Since I normally create digital art, I'm not sure I should be let loose with paint!
