I haven’t posted the kids work in the last few weeks so I wanted to catch up with them. They are doing beautiful work (and learning something too)! We have had a few new students join us. If you have a young artist have them join us on Thursday afternoons at 4:15.

Still on our quest to jump-start Spring. Here is another spring related painting. Can’t wait to see my friend Stacy’s Weeping Cherry Tree in full bloom!

Three of my students finished their paintings this past week. And boy did they do a great job. Ethan made this terrific kite painting and Jacob did this wonderful open book painting in the Kids Class. Kids ages 7-12 paint each Thursday from 4:15-5:15. And we would love to have new painters join us.
Logan, who started in the Kids Class several years ago and now has moved to the adult class, completed this wonderful “Enterprise” painting. Great job Logan with nice vision. You are doing super in the Adult Class!

Wonderful Student Art

I love helping my students create beautiful paintings each week in class. For those who don’t know in our weekly art classes each student paints whatever subject matter they prefer and I help each person individually instead of everyone painting the same thing as we do at the Paint Parties. This allows each painter to have something they really want when they complete a painting rather than just the subjects that I select.
Here are a couple of really nice ones that Gretchen and Kathy completed this past week. Great job!!!

The 1st Saturday Paint Party is this Saturday, March 1st at 3 pm at the Blue Ridge Arts Council. This month we will be painting a landscape. There are 2 spaces left in this session so if you are interested in painting with us contact me right away. We would love for you to join us.
Take a look here at last month’s results. Paint Parties are a great way for you to try painting. We provide all the supplies. You just show up and HAVE FUN!
Family Treasures

If you recall, I had an interesting commission before Christmas from a gentleman to paint three paintings for his family of scenes from North Carolina where they spent time as kids and that had meaning for them. (See the posts for those paintings here, 2nd one here, and the last here.) I got the nicest email from him this past week and he gave me permission to share it:
