Paint the Poudre Plein Air

I am going to participate in a new plein air event for Northern Colorado: Paint the Poudre.  The event runs from July 2 -11, 2013.  There are 39 professional artists that were juried into this event/show.  The paintings that will be created either along the Poudre River or in old town Fort Collins will be for sale at the Artists Association of Northern Colorado's gallery in Fort Collins for one weekend only.  If you would like to be a sponsor follow this link

Oil Painting: Basics and Beyond

My Space
This summer I'm offering a variety of mini workshops at my home studio in lieu of my weekly painting classes.  On August 21 & 22 from 9AM-12PM I will be teaching 
 "Oil Painting: Basics & Beyond". If you have ever thought about taking oil classes without the commitment of buying supplies this class is for you.  This class will cover techniques, safe use of oils, color theory, brush strokes-basically everything to get you started.  All supplies included.  No experience necessary.  Contact me for more information.
