Over the past few weeks my international students have been working on a palette knife painting. They really enjoyed doing this one.

Great Student Art
Posted in Animals, Art Class, tagged bee, Bees, Character, girl on March 9, 2017| Leave a Comment »
Our kid’s classes produce some amazing art in just one hour. The Wednesday Kid’s class (for ages 8-12) painted these great Bees yesterday. Older kids (teenagers) join us in our adult class on Wednesdays. In that class they can paint whatever they choose and develop their own style a little more.
Emily is new to the adult class and she is doing great. She has created this character that she drew and painted and she is even creating a story that goes along with her. Love it!

We had a terrific group of painters join us at The Studio for Famous Painter night as we recreated Dutch painter Piet Mondrian’s still life of a Plate with Oranges. Didn’t these ladies do beautiful work. I love these.

Over the past few weeks I have been working with students from the Virginia International Academy. VIA is full immersion boarding school for ESL high school students preparing them to enter mainstream academic programs. (You can read more about it here). These students want to go on to study some form of art eventually so they come to The Studio for lessons for 10 weeks while attending VIA. They did a fabulous job on our painting of this craggy old tree.

On one of our morning walks last week, Jed and Lincoln and I saw forsythia beginning to bloom….already! Because of it we painted Forsythia in the kids classes last week and they did great work. Here are the samples I created for them to see for their paintings.
