Painting Classes Announced!

My return to smaller, more intense painting classes is so wonderful-feeling! It fits my original, demonstrative style of teaching on a more individual basis, giving intense instruction to those students more serious about learning.  I love having awesome students like that!

Large Canvas Painting

Only 4 in the class

Yay!!! Auburn's #!

I've painted new paintings of our awesome quarterback whose a top consideration for the Heisman!  So deserving!  If you want to see my paintings, just drop by my gallery!  Prints are not an option at the moment until licensing issues are dealt with, so just enjoy my original depictions of something I'm really passionate about--my alma mater and Auburn football! War Eagle!  Anyone know the name of this building that is a landmark on Auburn's campus?  It's available at my Giclee Site!

Back from Tuscany!

Still a little jet-lagged, but home and relishing in the blessings from our Tuscany trip.  My sister Claire and I had a successful first annual Tuscan Painting Journey with 6 students along with us.  I am showing a few photos from it, but take a few minutes to watch an incredible slideshow that our awesome official photographer, Leslie Adair made of our time there.  Grab a cappuccino, sit back and enjoy!

Have Supplies Will Travel!

I have enjoyed teaching on location so much lately!  I want to do more!  And with my schedule of summer Paint Nights coming to an end, I am looking toward the holidays and all that is going on.  This is the time of year where I project what I'll have done by the end of the year.  So what I would like to offer are Paint Nights at YOUR home where they can be casual, fun and relaxing!  If you're interested, comment below or email me! There are options to make it work for you and your friends. Doesn't that sound fun?

This is the great fun I had last night helping raise scholarship funds for the Huntsville Madison Auburn Club to send kids from this area to Auburn!  By the way, what a fun way to raise a few thousand dollars in one evening doing something fun like painting Aubie and taking it home!  Thank you to all who came and to Scott & Cheryl Bence for working so hard to make this an incredible event! War Eagle!

Private Lessons

Today was so much fun working with this little guy for his private class.  Amazing what a talented 7-year old can do!  We painted clownfishes and he did a large one of "Riley," a fish he saw in the waters at the beach this summer.  Turned out great!  His mom was so excited when she saw all the art he got done in only 2 hours!  If you're interested in a private lesson, email me and see what times are available and we'll get one that's right for you!
