a couple of new paintings

I painted these two little watercolors this last weekend, and both of them sold before the paint was dry. I usually post my newest paintings on my Facebook page right away, and they often sell before I get a chance to post them here or elsewhere. The best bet to get first dibs on my latest paintings is to keep an eye on my Facebook page.

Free painting lessons at Plaza in Philly!

I'm thrilled that Plaza Artist Materials has asked me to demonstrate watercolor painting during their Hands on Creativity event at their Philly store! I'll be demonstrating numerous painting techniques on a variety of surfaces from 11-4pm on Saturday and Sunday, October 17th and 18th. I'll also be teaching short, quick and easy lessons! This is a "drop in" event, you don't need to register! All materials are provided for my lessons, and students will leave with a completed painting. There will be lots of free samples of art supplies to give away, too, so you really don't want to miss this event!

Representatives from all the major artist materials suppliers will also be on hand to distribute free samples of all sorts of art supplies. This event only happens once a year, so you don't want to let this opportunity pass you by!
