amy

My studio is lonely today.  It enjoyed having nine lovely ladies over the weekend.  It was" fulled up".  We painted still life set ups on Saturday and we worked from two of my photographs on Sunday. "amy" the cow was named so because my sister in law, Amy, provided delicious lunches both days.  We meant this to be a compliment.  Amy looks nothing like this cow.
This was my first time to conduct a workshop and it was a good experience for me and I think the students.  Everybody seemed to enjoy each other and they did a great job.  There were a couple that were very new to painting but you can see from the work below that they all did great.  It was so fun to see their paintings come to life.  "amy" was the demo I did before they painted their cows and my amy is a little jealous of some of these amys.  I am a proud mama.  Thank you to this great group !sold
