Our backyard today

It's a big deal around here- 3 days with school and offices closed from snow. Today the sun at least made it look pretty. Snow, snow go away- come again no other day.......

Very nice! I JUST got back inside from driving around and taking photos of trees and shadows in the snow! I was so surprised to check my facebook and see this painting! Great job! I love shadows in the snow and will, at some point, paint some too now! Hope you are staying warm!

living in Wyoming that is beyond wishful thinking. But then again I love snow and as a kid looked forward to days school would close. Everyone was so used to the white stuff that it never happened. Nice painting Robin.

Schedule a Workshop for your group

Painting Your Vision Workshop No matter what level is current in your oil painting, its time to step up to the next level. This workshop is designed to add interest in texture and design, emphasize brushwork and edges, and explore new additions to paint techniques. We do this by using traditional methods of direct or alla prima painting, which simply means all we can accomplish in a session using rich paint to make sophisticated edges. We will explore different surfaces that affect the look of an oil painting. And we will use a simple color mixing exercise to give confidence in value and mixing the color you need. Bring your references or use my photos. Demonstrations will give suggestions to add something new to your oil paintings and painting time to bring it all together.
