Miss Gaylor with Strawberries
Miss Eyeleen Paints a Lighthouse
Tuesday at The Southerlands is always delightful because I get to paint with some lovely ladies. Yesterday Miss Gaylor and Miss Eyeleen completed these paintings. They both just started painting in the last few months. Aren’t they doing great? And the best part is they are having fun painting!

One sunny day last week I took the paintings that the ladies at The Southerlands had completed in the last few months outside to give them a good coat of varnish. There were a BUNCH of them. I love going up there on Tuesday’s to work with these fun ladies. They always make me smile.
I guess that is why I was so shocked when I went a few weeks ago and learned that one of my favorite students, Miss Inge, had passed away. It was sudden and unexpected. She had never painted before we started and she just loved what she created.
This is one of Inge’s last paintings. I will miss her smiling face and wonderful little Jewish sayings. She never let me squeeze out too much paint. “We shouldn’t waste”. I can hear her saying it now with a big, sweet smile on her face and twinkle in her eye.

I spent a very pleasant hour painting with these beautiful “new ” artists at The Southerlands And didn’t they do a fantastic job on their paintings?

Yesterday, I was invited to paint an art demonstration at The Southerlands. This is the piece that I did for them. I was showing them how easy it is to paint in anticipation of them beginning a painting class.
