The kids class painted snowmen paintings this week. And we did two so that they would have extras to give as gifts to grandparents or friends. They did a great job on these to get them done in just one hour! Wow. Great job guys.

Warm-up Success
Posted in daily painter, tagged acrylic, daily painter, daily painting, impressionism, Landscape, Virginia Artist on December 6, 2012| Leave a Comment »
When I am on a roll painting I get up early and grab a cup of coffee and then generally take a sheet of watercolor paper divided into 6 or 8 pieces and do several quick warm-up paintings. I try not to spend but about 15 minutes working on these just to help me loosen up and get some color ideas. Sometimes I like what turns out. Yesterday while cleaning up pile of old warm-ups I came across several I like. I put them in a mat and liked them even more. So here is Warm-up in Orange and Warm-up in Green, acrylic on watercolor paper, available for $25 each.

Anyone Can Paint

I was asked to speak and do a demonstration painting for the Front Royal Christian Women’s Connection at Shenandoah Country Club last week. Their theme for the month was “Anyone Can Paint”. And I was thrilled they invited me to share. I had 15 minutes to do this little painting and to talk about how I got started painting. As you know I am always telling people that all they need to paint is desire. I really think anyone who is interested in painting can do it. And that is why I love teaching and helping people develop their desire to paint. If you’d like to try it contact kwalker@doubledogdesigns.com for more info or check it out here.
