Not Snow Again!

Once again winter has descended upon us bringing more snow and icy conditions. So, no Wed classes I’m sorry to say. We want everyone to stay warm and safe. Raleigh students for tomorrow’s classes send me an email to let me know you received this email.

Cary class:  At least half of our Cary class can’t make it tonight so there will be no Cary class this evening either.  Base your coffee pot with a medium light blue color with Prussian Blue + Light Buttermilk.  Add your squiggles with thinned Light Buttermilk.  Eggs are the background color so no basecoat is needed.  Send me an email to let me know you got the word.

We will not have the Friday, Feb 14 class since I have only one registered.  If you are interested in painting the Sodas and Sundaes later let me know. web snow fence

Your home work, even those of you not currently registered for tomorrow’s classes, is to take more snow reference photos. Then using them, paint (acrylics, colored pencils, watercolors …) a miniature snow scene like the one in this email.  Not the same scene but you get the idea. You don’t need a pattern, make it up as you go.  Maybe use some unusual colors.  Make sure you create a center of interest, using maybe a tree, a snow drift, a rock, an animal in your focal area. Just make sure it’s an area not just one item. I’ll look forward to seeing your creations.  Bring them to the studio to show us.

I’m so sorry to keep missing so many classes. I have never had to cancel so many classes in one year! We’ll hope this is the last time and get back to painting next week.

I’ll look forward to seeing all of you next week.  Enjoy the snow!
