My Color Partners in Crime, attendees from the LAAG's Getting Fresh workshop in Baton Rouge this last week
Pics from all 4 days of the Louisiana Art and Artists Guild (LAAG) workshop are on the studio's Facebook page – I pushed these ladies hard, and look at how forced (!!!) their smiles are.
For many, this was their first attempt at acrylics, too, in addition to having all sorts of new concepts thrown their way. They deserve medals of honor for putting up with me. (I did hear something about wringing my neck at one point....)
And despite how mean and rotten a teacher I was, whipping them into a harmonic color mixing frenzy, they sent me home with the dearest gift.
A treasured cookbook of southern favorites.
Filled with signatures and inscriptions recounting all the fun we had.
I am so lucky to count them among my friends!
I miss y'all already - keep painting, ladies, and I hope to come back and visit again!!
If anyone else is interested in info on hosting one of my workshops, let me know!! I'm currently lining up my 2014 schedule.

"Tabby Kit," 5" x 7", acrylics on a museum quality panel, depicting a tiny little orange striped guy from Morgue File . This painting can be yours for $289, which includes s&h inside the US. And in case you didn't see it, a little doodle of him is also available for sale here . Inquires may come directly to me . Although it certainly doesn't FEEL like spring here (snow and ice and wind chills, brr!), I can tell that spring is coming. The mercury is rising a wee bit each day and the days are getting longer and brighter. Over the weekend we drove with the moonroof open just to feel the sun's meager and oh-so-very-welcome warmth (although the heat in the car was cranked, too, in the interest of full disclosure!). I wanted to work with spring-like colors today, and this little guy was still on my mind , so I grabbed a small panel and got to work. Of course, I also have Poppy to finish and some changes to make to another po
Un bel hommage à cette charmante troupe d'artistes en herbe !

Martine, how fun would it be to bring a workshop to France and paint with you?! :)
DeleteOh ! mais j'en serais très honorée... Qui sait pourquoi pas. Il n'y a que les montagnes qui ne se rencontrent pas.
ReplyDeleteTout peut être possible...
Gros bisous
