New Painting


Young Moose

I have wanted to paint a moose for while. I have yet to capture a photo of a Bull Moose with antlers but my daughter managed to capture this photo of a Moose along Highway 63 as it  was heading into the woods.  This painting is a 8 x 8 inch palette knife painting. I used a small palette knife and only at the end used a liner brush for the branches. I would love to do a larger painting and i will but not yet, in the mean time I will try a series of smaller paintings .

Busy Time of Year

 


Window Painting 2015

     Work has kicked in after a hiatus from school. Projects are building and commissions getting done.I love this season for the anticipated window Splash. So far 4 businesses have commissioned a window which is great to see I would still love to see more. I am reminded of a New Brunswick artist who paints windows every Christmas for all the businesses in town. 

            Classes are up and running. I have a small group of young children taking a mixed media art class. Super enthusiastic group and super talented.  I am also thrilled to have a full adult group in my beginner drawing class. I am excited to see their final project as I have seen their first practice piece and they are all talented. 
            I am reminded of my own excitement, when my children were young and I picked up a pencil and took my first drawing class. Learning a new skill is unbelievably rewarding. 



          I am starting a piece for a competition that I need to hustle and complete this weekend. Also a few commissions require my attention. 

         If interested in some wild  Bangles....I will be setting up a table, in Desjardin Hall , the night of the Telethon, November 25th. 

         New Designs will be available and  don't hesitate to commission a one of a kind design for a special someone. 


I will be painting that night and it will be part of a raffle, the money being donated to the Telethon. 

        Finally after a year of thinking about trying this out: Painter's Palate: Canvas, Paint and Wine an evening of fun painting while enjoying a glass of wine. 


I am planning more events similar to this in 2017 and am also available to bring a painting party to your own home : painting with great company in the comfort of your home. What a fun way to celebrate events like Girls Night Out, or Mother Daughter Paint Out, etc.....
