Pet Portrait Demonstration at the Library
Last week I was asked to present a demonstration of a pet portrait at Samuel Public Library Summer Reading program. Their theme this summer is pets so my work fit in nicely. It was fun to paint the demo piece while talking about being a full-time artist. I really enjoy doing this type of presentation.

Adirondack Chairs
The next 1st Saturday Paint Party is July 5th at 3 pm. To celebrate the summer let’s paint some Adirondack chairs! Be sure to reserve your space to paint this wonderful summer scene. We may decide to put our chairs on a beach….or if a lake is your preference we can paint it with this nice background.

Seagull
I had a few minutes to paint during art class last night so in honor of Picasso and finding his painting hidden under “The Blue Room”, I painted over an old abstract painting I had done several years ago.
The Seagull is acrylic on 24″ x 24″ canvas and is available for $225.

While working at Delilah’s Art & Gift Shop on Sunday I set up a table on the porch and painted. I like to do that because people are curious and will ask questions about art and painting when they see you working on a piece. This is a look at the progression of my Sunday painting.
