New Workshops & Walks!

Curious about how I create my watercolor sculptures? Then sign up for Watercolors in 3D: Layered Nature Scenes on March 19 at Cheekwood, and learn how to make your own! We’ll meet from 1-4pm, and all supplies are included. This is the first time I’ve offered this workshop, so reserve your spot soon before it sells out! You can find more information here: https://cheekwood.org/learn/adult/

Nature can also be your inspiration for abstract painting, and you can explore the possibilities by joining us for Natural Abstractions on February 19 at the Franklin Recreation Center! You’ll find all the details here: https://apm.activecommunities.com/wcpr/Activity_Search/natural-abstractions/17084

Spending time surrounded by nature can reduce stress and promote well being, as you can discover for yourself by joining us for a relaxing Forest Bathing Walk at Beaman Park! The next walk is February 26 from 1-2:30pm, and your $12 payment includes a donation to the park. To register, call 615-862-8580 or email beamanpark@nashville.gov

New Classes & Show!

I’m delighted to announce that I’ll be teaching at the Franklin Recreation Center starting in October! They have big classrooms with plenty of room for everyone to spread out and have their own table. I’ll be offering a 4-week version of Practical Color Theory that starts on October 21 and a Forest Bathing and Art workshop on October 16. Since the Center is in a park, we’ll be able to do the Forest Bathing there, then head inside for the painting part of the workshop. Both classes should be listed on their website by the end of this week; then you’ll be able to register here by searching for either one by name:

For specific links, you can also visit the Workshops and Classes page on my website next week; and feel free to email me with any questions! Here’s a view of the park; it’s right by the Harpeth River:

If you’re interested in seeing some of my art in person, come visit me at the seventh annual Art on the West Side event at the Gordon JCC on October 2 and 3! You can learn more here: http://artonthewestside.org/

I’ll be showing several watercolor sculptures, including Tales of the Understory, Part 3. Here’s a closeup:

Exciting News & New Work!

I’m happy to announce that I’ve found a new location to teach classes, starting in the fall! Since it’s near a park, we’re also discussing the possibility of offering a Forest Bathing workshop. We’re still working out the details, so more specific information will have to wait until next month. It’ll be great to be teaching again!

My latest tunnel book is called We Are Not Alone. It’s inspired by walks in the woods and stories of the kinds of interconnections found there. What you see depends on your point of view, and each panel tells part of the story. Notice how different it looks from the other side:

And here’s a trip back in time featuring just the panels without the accordion sides:
