We’ve been asked to teach at Capon Springs & Farms Resort from October 1 to 5, (Sunday to Thursday). You can come for one night or all four with this flexible schedule. The best part of coming is that the $99 per night includes 3 meals per day (made from scratch and some from the farm), art instruction and all other resort activities, except for golf and spa services. Bring your own art supplies and paint along. Or if you don’t have art supplies and you want to give it a try, there will be a small supply fee for the things you want to try. How easy is that?!

Capon Springs is such a beautiful place…lots of beautiful views and things to paint.  It’s like going back in time to a peaceful and relaxing place.  So put this on your calendar and contact Capon Springs right now to reserve a room. If you want to bring your spouse/partner there is plenty for them to do there too! Hiking, golf, spa services and more! You can paint in the mornings and enjoy the resort activities in the afternoon. Go to www.caponsprings.net or call (304) 874-3695 to register. We’ll see you there in October. We can’t wait!!!!
