My art instructor, Lorraine, would be proud!  I've actually done some painting since the Peters Valley Workshop, ending July 31st!

Mugged by Shutterfly

Thanks to a Shutterfly on-line coupon, I was able to create the white coffee mug below as a remembrance of the 5-day art workshop in Peter's Valley, "The Art of the Sketchbook."  Inspired by Ben Johnson's poem, "Drink To Me Only With Thine Eyes" and the urging of Picasso to find my "inner child."

Peter's Valley - In Paint & Photos

Had an inspiring time painting and photographing during the "The Art of the Sketchbook" workshop at Peter's Valley - July 27-31, 2012. Was able to attend thanks to friend Barbara who did the driving! Friend, Artist, and Teacher, Lorraine, was wonderful as I've come to expect over the years.

Had a fun and excellent learning experience during a 5-day workshop at Peter's Valley, "The Art of the Sketchbook," with artist Lorraine Niemela. It was much more than just sketching...photographing, trying different media and techniques, assignments to stretch our creativity.

Cuban Artist: (Jesus) Cepp Selgas

Two Selgas' paintings are on view at the Newark Museum in the exhibition "Ajiaco" (through August 14, 2011).  This is a 10-minute video of Selgas creating one of his works (2006).  I found it fascinating!
