Yesterday we had our 3rd Saturday Paint Party. We always paint Pet Portraits on that day. It is one of the most popular events that we hold at The Studio….almost always selling out! And yesterday was no different. Everyone did a fabulous job capturing their pets on canvas. Great work.
The next 3rd Saturday Paint Party is July 18th at 3 pm. Join us.

Sometimes really special things happen at The Studio when I teach. This week I got to enjoy one of them. For Christmas a couple of young girls gave their granddaddy a gift certificate to The Studio. They knew he was getting ready to retire and they were suggesting an option of some things he might like to try.
This week he used his gift to paint with one of his granddaughters….one who has taken classes and art camp with me before. So Maddie and Jim painted these wonderful beach scenes. Maddie helped Jim learn about color mixing and painting. They were so much fun and adorable together. So glad they had a fun time and created this great memory at The Studio. Nice work!

The Creative Team Building art went to its permanent home yesterday. We hung the work of art at the Humane Society of Warren County Shelter where it will reside as a permanent reminder to the participants of their team building experience as well as providing a bright and cheery focal point near the cat area. (Remember this is the wonderful creation of the Feline Staff of the Shelter. Read that here.)
Creative Team Building is a terrific way for businesses/corporations to hold retreats or team building events. These also work great for Bridal Showers, Baby Showers and Graduation Celebrations. The guest of honor then has a fabulous piece of art for their new space.
And the participants don’t get left out. Each participant gets a print of the finished painting to mat and frame to enjoy. To learn more about Creative Team Building read about it here….and schedule your event soon.

The Wildflower Retreat at Sassafras Farm (Chickens in the Road) was a fabulous success! We had so much fun learning all about wildflowers and all the things we can do with them from pickling, to frying, to making jelly and infused oils, and much, much more. And of course, we painted wildflowers too!
And if you missed out on all the fun there will be another Wildflower Retreat in the fall – September 12-13, 2015. Check that out here.
These ladies were loads of fun and we laughed constantly. Thanks ladies for making this Retreat such a delight!
