~ Mountain Santa Class ~
Advanced Acrylic Class: November 2009

Our Ivory Fur-Cloaked Santas were painted on either slate, wooden tavern board or sled. Santa carries his lantern along a moonlit snowy mountain pathway and pauses to wink at the viewer; stone archway with icicles and fuzzy hare are in the foreground. Considering the lateness of our second class, the instructor was delighted to see happy smiles all around the room…made for a jolly beginning of the upcoming holidays! Happy Christmas to All !!

Intermediate Class:  October 2009

Red, Yellow, Blue: the Primary Colors were used throughout our paintings to create Primrose, Batchelor Button and Black-Eyed Susan Vine along with 3 critters.  The common denominator color was red: At the very end of our paintings, Red was lightly washed over the sky and foliage to both warm-up the paintings and to create some continuity among the three paintings. Thank you for a fun class. (Sorry to Barb who couldn’t join us for the second class.)

Beginner OIL Class: October 2009

Our second session of Good Ole’ Summertime was as successful as the first! Wonderful cloudy skies and antiquated barns were painted by all; and it was a joy for me to watch the progress of each painting. Congratulations to all of you. Looking forward to the next “Steve” class.
