We created lovely little versions of Happy Creek last night at the Paint Party. As always, I love how we all have our own version even while looking at the same reference material. Each painter makes it their own. Nice work everyone!

A few weeks ago we painted down by Happy Creek en plein air (outside in open air). It was a fun morning and I got a good start to a little landscape. (See that post here.) Yesterday I got around to finishing this one. And we will be offering it as a Paint Party on Tuesday, June 4th at 6 pm. Click here to register.
Laughter and Tulips

I can’t remember the last time I laughed as hard as I did last night at the Expressionist Tulips Paint Party. My friend, Deb, who often comes to paint at The Studio and helps me with the larger Paint Party groups, brought her mom to the paint party last night and Mrs. Salisbury kept us in stitches! And in between the laughs we all painted some beautiful expressionist works of art. Beautiful!

I was delighted to be invited to hold a Paint Party for the 21st Faith Community Nurse/Health Ministry Retreat at Cacapon Resort State Park in Berkeley Springs, West Virginia last night. Thanks Kim Davis for having The Studio over to lead such a wonderful group. They were so much fun and created these beautiful little Apple Blossom Tree paintings. And what a lovely setting the state park is there! Beautiful!

Painting Like Monet

We had a relaxing evening painting Yellow Irises like Monet last night at the Studio. Famous Painter night is every 4th Tuesday where we recreate a famous work of art. These are fun and educational. Watch for the next one.
Barn Quilts are beautiful. They have been around for hundreds of years. In the past, farmers used different types of folk-art including quilt-like blocks to decorate their barns. People chose blocks to reflect particular meanings. They have had a resurgence in the last 20 years with many states offering Barn Quilt Trails or Tours. A barn quilt can be hung on the exterior of your barn, house, porch, garage, gate, shed, gazebo, chicken coop or boat shed to be shared with admirers from the road. They are also finding their way inside homes and offices. We have another class to paint a Barn Quilt on May 14th at 2 pm.
