Painting Small

Small Landscape to sell We often offer BIG painting options at The Studio where you can create a large canvas but sometimes it is nice to do something smaller to hang in that small space at home or to give as gifts. Coming up we have two options for painting small. First on Tuesday, September 10th at 6 pm we will do a small oblong landscape featuring the palette knife or you can choose to join us on Thursday, September 12th at 6 pm to paint a small 5×7 with a brush. The Thursday class even includes the frame! Just click on the links to register. These are fun and fast and make beautiful little works of art.

Dreams Come True

Posted in Camping, tagged Camper, Trailer on August 26, 2019| 1 Comment »

People who know me well know that for years every time we pass a camper on the road I would say “All my life I’ve wanted a Winnebago!” Several years ago I got serious about getting one and started doing tons of research on what I really wanted. Having done that I decided a pull-along trailer would suit my situation better and I started looking at all the different styles and layout. Then my regular routine was that every night before bed I would spend several minutes searching online…especially since Facebook Marketplace got popular. A few weeks ago I ran across one that looked perfect for me. And it was! We went to Warfordsburg, PA to see it and then back a few weeks later to get it. WooHoo! It’s been fun going over it and deciding what we need to make it our great little retreat. It’s in awesome condition and we can’t wait to start using it. I’m sure there will be more photos to come. Lincoln and I are so excited!!! And many thanks to Allen for being such a trooper and letting me drag him all over God’s Green Acre to see it and bring it home.
