News — art on paper

I have been so inspired by circles lately! And I just love seeing them all clustered together :) What has been inspiring YOU this week?   I have been creating a small series of one-of-a-kind original round paintings on 8x8 inch paper and releasing them first to my private KmBerggren Community on Facebook (you can ask to join, especially since something really neat is coming to that page this week!).

I have a new series of paintings to share with you - something I've been obsessing over this week...   NOTE: My lovely Group Members at the KmBerggren Community Group on Facebook saw these first, and gave me some great feedback.
