Happy 2018 — Are you ready to paint !!

Happy 2018!  Let’s paint!

I hope everyone had a nice holiday season and survived the COLD and snow.  Myself…we experienced several burst water pipes and have spent many of the last 5 weekends repairing everything in case we get more cold weather.  But I am ready  to get back to painting now. So join me to paint this lonely barn in the snow.   You can see the schedule for the rest of the month since it is now posted on the web page https://adate2paint.com/calendar/    I hope everyone finds something of interest and will join me as we paint our masterpieces.

Winter barn in the snow.

Brrr… looks COLD

  In  fact, the first painting  scheduled for this Saturday, 2/10  from 9:00am-200am  reminds us that it is still winter, with a little snow. Remember– February is traditionally our coldest month.

Santa’s Journey Oil Painting

 

 

My students and I painted this oil painting last week  during our bi-weekly 3-hour class.  Are you ready for Christmas? ONLY 16 DAYS left to prepare for his visit  wouldn’t this be the perfect holiday gift?

Speaking of gifts, several students from the class already have plans to give theirs to either family or friends for Christmas.  Would YOU like to paint something like this for yourself or others? This painting, like others I teach, are taught with YOU in mind. Whether you are a true beginner or more advanced painter , it is designed to be completed in one short class AND can even be framed afterward in my studio.
