2014 in the Studio

 Since October:

Painted for Richmond Animal League Auction 5 x 5 on canvas.
Yes, this is Eugene. 
I've seen several paintings find new homes recently (hooray!) and I have several more on the easels that will hopefully be heading to new homes soon.

Workshops are a new addition to teaching my regular classes.  So far, they are going well.  A woman who is a regular student of another teacher in the gallery had been interested in taking a class, but not committing full time - her medium is watercolor. This student specifically requested a demonstration style class, so I came up with a cross between the currently popular paint party concept and a technique workshop.  It's been a success and the participants step away with basic lessons in acrylic painting and color mixing, even though we all use the same image as reference. 




My goal for 2014 is to 
Paint more. Teach more.  Live more. 
So far, so good.
