Monet & the State Park

Posted in Art Camp, daily painter, Paint Party, Team Building, tagged Monet, sailboat, Team Building on June 22, 2016| Leave a Comment »

Yesterday was busy for The Studio. Art Camp in the morning had the campers painting a beautiful Monet inspired sailboat. The kids did a fabulous job on this one. And we even had a little time left to explore palette knife painting. We pack a LOT into just three hours in the morning at camp.

As soon as camp ended we loaded up the supplies and rushed out to the Shenandoah River State Park to hold a Paint Party for Lord Fairfax Community College Workforce Solutions Team. They painted a wonderful view from the park of a road that leads to the River. Even a huge impending storm couldn’t dampen our spirits. This enthusiastic group was a joy with which to paint. Thanks everyone! Check out more about “Team Building” here.

Just returned from Nimrod Hall and a weekend of study with Fielding Archer, an amazing artist from Richmond who shared his unique style with the group painting there. We learned so much by observing Fielding’s demonstrations and asking questions about how he works.

It was a terrific weekend of art at a beautiful place. Can’t wait for next time.
