Fantastic Painting Retreat Weekend!


We had a wonderful weekend of painting this weekend.  Four lovely ladies came from out of town to spend time painting during an intense New Year New You Workshop.  And they did a fantastic job!  We started Friday night with a relaxed Wine & Cheese Gathering to meet up and get to know one another.  And today we met to paint all day!  We painted a Starbucks cup still life on a 12 x 12 canvas, then we worked on a bigger canvas.  A couple of gals worked on a large 36x24 canvas, painting a lovely piece of her daughter, and the other painting a pear still life.  I was really impressed.  Then Susan, painted a beautiful Italian landscape on her 24 x 12 canvas.  Awesome!  When we finished, we had a short critique and then said our goodbyes.  I'm blessed for such wonderful people in my life.
