Sassafras Farm Workshop

Posted in Art Class, daily painter, Other Bloggers, Travel, tagged Art workshop, Chickens in the Road, Sassafras Farm on April 26, 2014| 2 Comments »

I arrived at Sassafras Farm yesterday afternoon to prepare for this weekend’s workshop. The farm is the home to my friend, Suzanne McMinn of Chickens in the Road fame. (Check out her blog here.) I am excited. The workshop is full and I am sure it is going to be a great weekend of learning and fun!

The farm has a multitude of animals from goats, sheep, chickens, cows, horses to of course, dogs and cats. There will be many opportunities for photos to build my reference library for painting. 🙂

In the painting portion of the workshop we will be doing a canvas, landscape painting, as well as a gourd birdhouse. I’ll show you the results tomorrow.

Nancy Bass, a wonderful animal artist, is teaching a two-day workshop at The Beverley Street Art School in Staunton. Her technique is so different than the way I normally paint that it has been a real challenge. This is part of a demonstration that Nancy did for us.
