I am always so proud of my art students and love sharing their work with you. I often post photos of the kids paintings and forget to take photos of the adults as they finish their paintings. But yesterday it seems that everyone was finishing paintings at the same time so I got some great shots. These are all Wednesday morning or evening students. Keep it up girls. Great job by all!!!

New York Mets

Just completed number 11 in the series of 30: Citi Field, home of the New York Mets. One of the most unusual things about Citi Field is that it is the only MLB park with orange foul poles instead of yellow.

Great Student Art

We had a good evening at art class. The kids painted a bird nest in a tree. Not the easiest of subject matter and they did a wonderful job.

And Luzia, one of my newest students in Thursday class, completed just her second painting – these wonderful parrots. Great job!

Barn – A Good Start

Barn – Laying in Background and Foreground

I had a delightful day of painting at Long Green yesterday. (See here the set-up for my first painting there.) Here is the progress I made. It was a bright sunny day so the shadows kept moving…and fast! But I got the first painting, the barn to a point of about 85% finished.

Barn – Only Details Left to Paint

Now I will tinker on it in the studio until it’s done. The Long Green Paint Out is for an upcoming fundraiser for Blue Ridge Hospice. They are going to have a “Decorator’s Showcase” there in September that will be open to the public. More info to come as I get it. And our paintings will be on display and for sale to benefit Hospice.

My niece Lexie graduated from high school yesterday and I gave her this painting as one of her graduation gifts. She loves blue Hydrangea so I painted this one just for her. It’s a 12″x12″ acrylic on canvas.

Congrats Lex!!!

The Thursday kids class painted a beautiful local landscape with a fence and gate in the foreground. They are fantastic! Good job everyone.

And I am sad to say that I will no longer be working with the wonderful ladies at the Southerlands. They have discontinued their art program. I will miss all the fun we have had. Here is Miss Gaylor with the last painting I helped her paint. I will miss them.

Paint Parties are Fun for All!

Paint Parties are a great way to enjoy some time out with the girls. And everyone has a great time learning to paint. I love the comments from the painters at these parties. Coming into the art room they always say, “I can’t paint. Maybe I’ll just watch”. And then at the end of the evening it’s, “Wow, I can’t believe I did that.” And “That was so much fun, I’m amazed at how great it turned out!”
