Painting on Fabric can be fun! We’ll be painting this endearing Angel and her friends on an apprx. 14″x17″ linen-like cloth that will have a pocket for a dowel rod and ribbon for hanging. There are three different cloth colors to choose from Blue, Green and Butter. You may paint the gown a different color if you choose and the angel may hold a heart, if you prefer. “WELCOME” will be written in an arc above the angel… A sweet painting!

1-Session Class
Intermediate / Beginner Painter
BRUSHES Needed:
Basecoat Brush; 5/8″Angle; #1Liner
COST of Painting 10″ Pot (No Herbs/Soil): $20 (includes 5 metal plant stakes)
COST of Painting 12″ Pot (No Herbs/Soil): $24 (includes 5 metal plant stakes)
COST of Soil and Herbs for planting to be determined.

COME and PAINT and PLANT with ME !!! First Learn to do a Marbleizing Technique using different tools such as sponges and feathers that I will provide for you. Once the Pot is dry, we’ll quickly varnish. Then, if you want to purchase the soil and herbs, we’ll go to the back patio (weather permitting) to plant five different fragrant herbs and you can then use your aluminum or copper metal stakes for identification purposes. You can paint “H-E-R-B-S” on the side of the pot if you like. I’m looking forward to this class as it means that summer is really here!!

Yellowthroat at the Pussy Willows

Beginner Oil Painter

This delightful scene of a Common Yellowthroat came about as I was thinking about what companion painting could be done to coordinate with a previous oil painting that we’ve done (American Goldfinch). This particular bird nests in the field thickets behind our house. Choice of painting on board or book box. Technique: Oil painting for beginner.
