A Shelter Window Mural

A few weeks ago Michele Sommers, Sommers End Originals, and I painted this mural at our the Julia Wagner Animal Shelter here in Warren County. It turned out great and adds a lot of life to a dull wall there.

We invite other artists to come out and add other animals to the window. Plus we will be painting a tree on the small wall leading to the cat area and will add cats to that mural. If you would like to help just get in touch with us.

You can see more photos of the mural and Michele and I at work here.

Art Campers Complete “Masterpiece”!

Posted in Art Camp, tagged Art Camp, Art Class, bridge, daily painter, flowers, impressionism, Landscape, Monet, Virginia Artist on July 1, 2011| Leave a Comment »

The Art Campers completed their “Masterpiece” painting yesterday. The emphasis for this week of camp is impressionism so of course, we painted a Monet.

They chose the Japanese Bridge over the Lily Pond as their subject.

And look at what a super job they did!!!

But art is exhausting. After taking two camp days to complete the large 16″x20″ painting they were pooped. At break time yesterday, they all took their snacks and went out into the lobby and laid down on the floor to eat their snacks. Pooped out!!!
