Wednesday the Kids Art Class painted their version of the winter evergreen trees. SUPER!
And at Thursday Adult Class we had two new students join us – Sisters! Great work girls. Look forward to painting with you again soon.
If you have ever wanted to give painting a try we have classes for adults every Wednesday morning at 10:30 or Wednesday or Thursday evenings at 5:30. Why don’t you give it a try?

Conference Managers Class Photo
Conference Managers Selfie
I had the pleasure of working with the Conference Managers yesterday for their Christmas Party. They had a fun day of cooking, wine tasting and painting at The Salamander Resort in Middleburg.
We painted a lovely winter scene with snow and trees and they all did a FABULOUS job! They were an enthusiastic and delightful group…but what could I expect when you get 15 A-type personalities together to paint. It was spirited! Great work everyone.
And I love that after we took their “class photo” they leaned in to take a “selfie”. Now those girls are good!!!

Last night at Art Class I had a delightful group of young people come to paint with me for the first time. It was a brother and sister and cousin. Their grandmother “made” them do it. LOL They all did a wonderful job even though they told me they had not painted this way before.
And in the end they were glad that she MADE them do it. I hope I get the chance to work with them again soon. Great job guys. Keep Painting!

The Party Girls
Mom with the Birthday Girl
We had the most fun Birthday Paint Party yesterday afternoon at The Studio. Rhea had many of her friends come to paint to celebrate her 7th birthday…and boy did we have fun. She requested to paint a “castle with purple flowers and a tree”! So we did.

The next 1st Saturday Paint Party is December 6th at 2 pm. This time is an hour earlier than usual as this is the same day as the Christmas Parade so we need to start early as the streets will be blocked later in the day.
Come on down and join us to paint this lovely winter scene and enjoy the Parade. Contact kwalker@doubledogdesigns.com to register.

Pat’s Halloween Costume – A Bubble Bath Tub
And I just couldn’t resist posting this photo of Pat in her Halloween costume. She always comes up with the BEST ones. This year she is “Taking A Bath in the Tub”. So clever.
