We love it when visitors from out of town schedule time to paint while they are visiting the area. I got a message this week requesting space in Wednesday evenings adult art class. Katie and Jake were visiting….on their honeymoon! They had kayaked on Wednesday morning and took photos, including the two that they used of a turtle on a log and 4 ducks in a row on a rock that they painted Wednesday evening. What a great rememberence of their time in our beautiful area. Congratulations again and enjoy your art!

Take a look at April’s Tee Shirt Quilt! She did a great job combining all of her Fiber Festival shirts into this cute lap quilt. We especially like the yarn themed fabric that she used to join the shirts. Nice work April!!!!
When Edouard Manet was 49 he knew he was dying. He continued working but on a smaller scale than most of his work. Over the last months of his life he painted a series of small exquisite still lifes….mostly bouquets brought to him by friends who visited him while he was sick. We will recreate some of these over the next year. We will paint the first one, “Lilacs in a Glass” on Sunday, June 29th at 2 pm. Replicating famous painters work improves and teaches us a variety of skills. Join us on this journey to explote Manet’s final works at these Famous Painter sessions.
