Manet - Carnations and Clematis in a Crystal VaseToday we celebrate Edouard Manet’s birthday.  He was a French Impressionist painter who painted modern life.  His works of art are beautiful.  We’ve always loved his flower series. Learn more about his life and work here.  And in Manet’s honor we will paint one of them, Carnations and Clematis in a Crystal Vase, 1883, for our February Famous Painter Party. Click here to register for that Paint Party. (We honored Manet in June 2016 at our Famous Painter Party by painting his beautiful Roses.  You can see those here.)  Happy Birthday Manet.

When Alannah came to Art Camp this summer she fell in love with my Tulip Palette Knife painting.  She wanted to buy it for her room but instead we talked her into taking a lesson to do one of her own.  And she did an excellent job yesterday painting with a palette knife for the first time.  Great work girl!

New Paper Painting

Posted in daily painter, Flowers, tagged , on July 17, 2017| Leave a Comment »

20170716_221708I spent some time playing with a new paper painting last week in between art camp and regular classes.  It’s a good start.  I hope to be able to do a little more this week.  We may even have time to do something similar during art camp.  It’s Modern Art week and sometimes we have time to do an extra painting when we finish our spatter and color block art.  :-)

My favorite flower…finally blooming after a year long wait.  Oh how I wish they would bloom year round instead of just a couple of weeks a year.  Allen brings them to me almost every day at this time of the year and I take loads of photos for reference.  So, so pretty!
