Kids and Crows

kids-crowsWe painted a Crow yesterday with the kids.  They did a great job and now have a Halloween decoration for their homes.

More Mermaids…

I was asked yesterday how my mermaid turned out.  I did a quick one Monday afternoon so the girls would have a sample to refer to while we were painting.  She’s the one with the red/pink hair.  Then I painted the blonde one during the Paint Party.  I still want to go in and put something in her hair.  I was helping others finish up theirs so I didn’t quite finish.

Mermaid Birthday

MM PP Sarah.jpg We celebrated Sarah’s 17th Birthday at The Studio last night by painting these really cute Mermaids with her friends and family.  Great work girls!  Happy Birthday Sarah!

Cmty Ctr PP 2.jpgOur Parks and Rec Community Center set up a Paint Party for Fall.  Take a look at the fabulous work that these painters did yesterday with their interpretations of fall.  Terrific!

Tootie's Poppies.jpgLast night at The Studio we had a great group of friends painting together for a private party.  We laughed a LOT!  What fun!!!!  If you are interested in a Paint Party with your friends check out the details here.

The Blue Barns

kids-blue-barn-10-18The kids painted Blue Barns with orange trees this week at class.  We are always discussing complementary colors and color mixing and this was a great lesson in that.  (Don’t tell them they are actually learning while having a good time painting.  We sneak that in on them!)

Didn’t they do an awesome job?!?!  If you have a young painter they can join us.  Check out more information here.

I got to spend a couple of hours with some of the American Woodmark team painting a mural that will go to their new headquarters.  It was an awesome experience…and they did a terrific job.  Just take a look!

Swedish Weaving

Preparing for a new class at The Studio.  Who is up for learning something fun and new.  Easy to do and loads of options.  Watch for a date for the class soon.

  

Finding just the right angle to paint is sometimes the hardest part of the composition especially when there are so many good ones from which to choose. 

20161017_055749.jpgWe have returned to the beautiful Whippoorwhil Manor Farm for The Studio Retreat II.  You might recall that we were here this summer for The Studio Retreat I.  (See more photos from that trip here.)  It was an awesome experience so most of the same group returned for a second go at painting and being creative  in this beautiful environment.

Lincoln and Jed love it here too.  Here they are on the porch yesterday afternoon waiting to greet the other Retreaters.  They could hardly contain themselves.  LOL –  Just two old porch dogs!  (BTW-Lincoln saw a ground hog running across the green field to the left of that red barn and I’m really glad I had a leash on him then or he would still be chasing that dang thing!)
