Sculpted Painting 070 after another day's work, February 4th, 2012 ... tomorrow, the tree is painted.
And as per usual, there's our cat, Oliver (a.k.a. Ollie Woggy), looking onward at the painting, giving his approval ... obviously a calming piece for him as he slept ALL DAY while I painted.

Acrylic Art Class - advanced - January 15, 2012 · 18 days ago
IT was an extra special class to have had two local professional artists, Jennifer Lawton and Lisa Harpell join in on the fun! Plus, a well versed painter from Toronto!
Jennifer decided to bring her own inspirational photo of the Grand Canyon to amplify her use of colour. Again the interpretations of the Erratic were varying, from barren moonscape, to colourful. Very exciting!
Thanks to all the girls for coming! Incluyding Jennifer’s dog, Sally.
My next class will be held Sunday February 12th with one spot left. And I am now scheduling a class for March, along with art classes during the March Break March 12-16, for youth under 13.
