Olivia with an Iris

Posted in Art Class, tagged acrylic, art lessons, daily painter, flowers, impressionism, Virginia Artist on January 11, 2012| 2 Comments »

Olivia painted this beautiful Iris last weekend for her grandparents. She did a lovely job. She takes private lessons with me.

I have many young artists painters that I work with either in class (ages 7-12) or taking private lessons. Kids younger than 7 often do best with one on one instruction in art. If you have a budding artist, get in touch with me about signing them up for art lessons or class. They’ll love it! kwalker@doubledogdesigns.com

Kaylee painted a cool picture of her brother’s truck for him as a surprise Christmas present. She said he “Loves His Truck”. So I thought his was a sweet gift for her to give. We worked on it for only a little over an hour and look what a great painting she did!
