Yesterday I met the nice young man who was the recipient of the painting that I did recently of the “View from Harrisonburg”. (You can see the step by step photos here.) The painting was a graduation gift as he just graduated from JMU.
And he wanted to take a photo with me when he picked it up. And he promised to send me a photo of where he hangs the painting.

I worked on a sample painting in a “Folk Art” style for the Retreat that I am teaching at this weekend at Sassafras Farm. We will be doing one canvas painting as well as a painting on a bucket!
Looking forward to meeting some new friends and having a fun weekend at the “Pioneers and Primitives” Retreat.

TVOR Demonstration Painting
Here is the painting that I did for the demonstration at The Village at Orchard Ridge on Tuesday night. (See yesterday’s post.)
I worked in acrylic on an 18″x24″ canvas. This was a one hour talk so I did not complete the painting but rather laid in the color and got a few details in so that they could see the process. I will take some time soon to finish it up but for an hour I got a great deal done.

I enjoyed working with a delightful family last night for a special family reunion Paint Party. These ladies were so much fun and we laughed and painted and had a wonderful time. The “Moonlight Over the Mountain” theme was to honor their grandmother who often sang that song to them. What a special Paint Party! Thanks girls for letting me be a part of it.

We have had two great Paint Parties this weekend – a Mom’s Night Out on Friday evening and our regular 1st Saturday Paint Party yesterday. Both did fabulous Fall paintings. Great job everyone!
And today we are having a Family Reunion Paint Party! What a great idea. More to come. If you would like to come to a Paint Party just sign up for the 1st or 3rd Saturday Parties that are open to anyone or if you have a special occasion we can plan a special party just for you.

I had some time this week to work on a few daily paintings. My schedule has been hectic and while I paint each day I haven’t had time to just do single daily paintings. Finally this week I had a little time for it. WooHoo!
Twin Cherries, acrylic on canvas, 5″x7″, available for $95.
