Late February 2012

Looks like a short cold spell here before Spring arrives, and plein air season begins! Can't wait. Thanks to those who dropped by the Arthouse Gallery last night for the demo and the reception for CURE charity. It was a great time.  There's a bunch of art events right around the corner and I'll plan to update you on that shortly, so stay tuned. In the meantime, for those painters interested...here's a repeat announcement on my upcoming classes/workshops.

Painting demo, class and workshop !

For those interested in my studio painting class in Sandy Springs, the next (6) week session starts again on March 5th. Last time, it filled up quickly, so don't delay if interested. Contact the referenced website for the Art School in Sandy Springs for details and registration.  This class is always a lot of fun, so I hope you'll be able to join in.

For those in a north Georgia location, check out my upcoming workshop at The Art Loft in Dahlonega, on March 9-10 (note date correction; previously listed as 3/8-9). This is an exciting two day workshop specifically set up for painting still life's in oil.  Don't  miss it!  (Contact the website, www.artloft.net, for details, or email me with any particular questions).

And, don't forget to save the evening of February 24th, (between 5:30pm-8:00pm) to visit The Art House Atlanta gallery, where I'll be giving a demonstration painting along with the benefit for Cure Children's Cancer.  The public is welcome for this wonderful event. Art, Wine, Hor d'oeuvres.....see you there!

Demonstration at The ArtHouse Atlanta

As always, feel free to contact me if any comments or interest in acquiring my work.  I hope this year is off to a good start for you; and thanks for checking in on my art blog!
