Classes Starting in OCTOBER!

You asked for it and they are back!  I will be posting more info in the coming days about my Finger Painting Classes.  I am working on some new images that will be fun and ready to hang in your home.  What I need from you:  Do you prefer week nights or Saturday?  Do you like bringing all your friends or are you ok to paint with strangers. 

Everything is still the same: $40 per person, painting and 11x14 canvas board and I supply all materials. You supply enthusiasm, beverages and/or snacks.  Can't get any easier than that!  See you soon....

Aug 23 White River Yacht Club!

Come check out the White River Yacht Club this Sat. for noon to 5pm.  I will have a booth along with several others celebrating their Open House.  They will have food, music, raffles and beverages.  Should be a fun time rain or shine!  I will have most of my boat pieces for sale too!  Who knows, I may paint some new ones on the River!
See you Saturday!

7 yrs at the Stutz!

Just a reminder I will be celebrating 7 yrs at the Stutz Business Center!  This Friday (First Friday!) I will be open from noon until 8pm.  Stop in to check out what I have been painting this summer and have a piece of cake or a glass of wine.  Most of the parking is free on Seante Ave.

I will also have a box for donations to Casa de Toro Pit Bull Rescue.  As most of you know I always attend and donate to "Pints for Pits" but Saturday they are "Riding to Rescue Pits" and they will end thier motorcycle ride at the Stutz!  It is a great cause to help these animals have a better life.  It you want more information check them out here: http://cdt-rescue.squarespace.com/ride-to-rescue

See you all FRIDAY!!!

Dave's Chair and Don't forget about Next FRIDAY!

I love doing commissions for people.  It is so personal and seeiing their reactions to having something special on canvas is priceless.  Thanks Julie and Dave for letting me paint your special place.

Just a reminder I will be in the studio for FIRST FRIDAY next week Aug1st.  We are celebrating 7 successful years at the Stutz!  I will be there from noon to 8pm.  Stop in and share in the celebration! Please RSVP via email or phone so I know who to expect.  Parking is free after 6pm.  See you next Friday!

Wawasse ! AND An Open House!

What a fabulous weekend for a plein air paint out!  While it did rain on Saturday it did not stop me from painting! Thanks to my lovely hosts Dave, Julie, Drew, Eve, John, Nick and Noelle.  I have some new collectors too!  Thanks Kim, Jennifer, Trina and Barb for your purchases.  I can't wait to see pics of the paintings in your home.  Looking forward to the next one in 2015.


Now for the Open House Aug 1st.  Back in 2007 I was struggling with my art. I had just returned from Italy and struggling to paint.  I had forgotten about my inquiries at the Stutz for a studio when Anne called.  "I have a couple of studios available if you are still interested" WOW! SO I checked them out and chose D285 (yes I know I could have picked the one on the third floor).  My move in date was Aug 1st 2007.  This was also the same time I discovered finger painting.  BIG changes in my life, career and painting.  I looked around and thought how will I ever fill these walls?  Will people find me?  IS this the right move?  Well, God and all of you helped to answer that question! YES! 
So as I begin another year at the Stutz in D285 my walls and hall are FULL of work ready for your home or office.  Come join me First Friday Aug 1st 12pm-8pm for a celebration of success you have provided. THANKS and See you there!

Summer Painting Classes

I will begin offering Summer Painting Classes again beginning in July.  I will have more information in the coming days.  So start looking at what Thursday nights and Friday afternoons you have open.

Another Successful Open House!!!

I HUGE Thanks to all who attended!  We so appreciate your patronage and support.  Thanks to all of my past collectors for stopping in to say Hi and to all of my new patrons! 
For those who are interested in classes be sure to email me with your dates and number of members for your group along with the image you would like to paint.  Check here also for new ideas for classes that I am working on too.
Finally I cannot thank my friends for giving up their Friday night and Saturday afternoon to help me help you! I am so blessed to have friends like Angel, Kim, Kevin, Tracy and Tom. I am especially thanks to have a husband who supports me in my career, promotes my work whenever he can and gives so generously of his time.  Thanks Jon I love you for all you do and for believing in me.

Now, back to painting as I have two small commissions to finish! Which means I will be in my studio for FIRST FRIDAY May 2!
