Around the Campfire (2nd Session)

~ Around the Campfire Class ~
Beginner Class: November 2010

Wow! So many folks painted beautiful paintings that we can barely squeeze them in!  Once again each individual’s personality showed through on the paintings. Steve’s a great instructor and this project was one of the best yet for learning new techniques. Thank you for such a fun class!

Steve Lubanovic’s first session of classes to paint this oil landscape turned out some very impressive paintings under his tutelage. This project had many interesting aspects to learn about; we had much fun, as is usual in Steve’s classes.

Pretty Poinsettia Acrylic/OIL Class

Beginner/Intermediate Class: November 2010

Our Poinsettias were  quickly basecoated in Acrylic, then Oils were used to add dimension and also a richness of color. This technique will also make for a quicker drying time which can come in handy for gift-giving. I so enjoyed watching this class create their beautiful paintings… thank you for all your great questions and making it two very enjoyable evenings! (So Sorry to Jen for not being able to join us for the second class.)

Serenity Falls Class 2

Serenity Falls OIL Class (Second Session)

~ Serenity Falls Oil Class ~
Intermediate Class: October 2010

Our second session of Serenity Falls was as successful as the Spring session. We talked about perspective and depth in the paintings; and although all paintings were the same in subject, each student’s personality made for the differences that they could call the painting their own. Thanks to everyone for a fun class and WELCOME to a new student, Viv!

(We also enjoyed a surprise visit from Boy George - please see previous post.)

Elaine Walker led us down the watercolor painting path to some LOVELY pink and white Hollyhocks… We also had a choice of butterflies to paint! Yours truly had a most delightful time painting with my painting friends and I thank Elaine for making it a very enjoyable evening for all of us… Looking forward to next season.
