Croatia demos

 Thanks to my student Kathy for sending these images on....gives you an idea of what I looked at while doing these oil demos

New Mexico Sky

My demo from this morning and 11 x 14 oil on canvas, New Mexico Sky.

Oil Class Exercise

Did an exercise with my class today.  Take the same image and reproduce it several times...once true to "what you see" and then change the color and design. They found it difficult but great...it forces you to deal with the painting on its own and not as a copy of a scene.

Croatia

 Just got back from teaching a pastel and oil workshop in Croatia.  It was amazing!  I was instructing with www.slikamilina.ca and Lynda who organizes these workshops does an amazing job!  She is charming and incredibly well organized and the food, accomodations and places we painted were all fabulous.

Headed home with a nightime stopover in Dublin.  Great town but we were scheduled to fly out on Monday when the hurricane was coming...worst storm there in over 60 years!  But, we got out and made it home!

Neighbors

My demo from my oil painting class.  "Neighbors" is an 8 x 10 oil on canvas
