Where is my Painting Muse?

I've been having so much fun with PS, I've done no painting.  I keep walking by the work space and telling myself I will sit down and paint.  But my painting muse is either asleep or jealous of my time spent with PS.  I did start these two pieces several weeks ago, but I just don't seem drawn to them to complete them.
The object of learning PS was so that I could combine my art (painting) with various images to create digital works.  I do need to create the paintings so I have something to "merge" with.....duh!!
So here are the rudimentary works to be continued whenever....or when my muse returns?
Whitewater

I love this quote Marilyn! And how true it is. Once one gets bitten by the PS bug it can be very captivating. :)

I like the whitewater very much! I'll be interested to see what you do with it. Hugs, Diane

i haven't "painted" for several years. i used to paint landscapes & dog portraits in oil, but things happened & i started playing with mixed media & now i have owed a friend a dog portrait for longer than i care to admit. sometimes thing just move in a different direction. i do have to say, tho, that one of the things i love about mixed media is the ability to incorporate my photography, so maybe the 2 will come together, but not in the way you originally planned. it'll be fun to see what happens!
