Rice Tire 1 I got to work with a wonderful group of ladies that are here in town for a conference with Rice Tire. They painted this beautiful jar with Apple Blossoms. Nice work all! I got to work with the group from Rice Tire when they were here 4 years ago for their conference so it was great to see them again. Click here for info from the 2016 visit.

Club Hope Mural Delivered

February 28, 2020 by kellywalkerstudios

Remember back in December I worked with a group of young girls at E Wilson Morrison Elementary School called Club Hope. (Click here to see that.) The group works on encouraging self-esteem and communication. We did a Team Building project, painting several canvases that were joined to make a mural. We recently delivered the mural to hang at their school. It looks great!!! If you are interested in a Team Building event for your school, your business or even your family event, click here.

What an afternoon! We had a great group of painters that came out to try something new, something that challenged them in their painting journey. And boy, did they step up. Everyone stepped up; they soaked up the new information and did a great job. Beautiful work came out of our set-ups. Now we can’t wait till the next one. We’ll have another “Master’s Class” on Sunday, April 26th. Watch for more information and get ready to stretch your skills.
