What a surprise to find that my pieces were chosen to represent the Art WORKS Collection on the Metro Arts kiosk! It was a lovely reception and lots of fun to hang out with the other artists and tour each floor to see all the art. Here I am with the other artists and the Board of Metro Arts Commission:

If you missed the Open House, you can see the collection anytime during regular business hours at the Metro Office Building. My pieces are on the 3rd floor near the elevator.

 

 


 

I’ll be teaching lots of classes and workshops in 2019, including a new one called Creating Watercolor Textures. It’ll be on Saturday, February 16, at Plaza, and the details will be on my website soon!

 

Best wishes for the New Year!

Happy Halloween! Thanks to windy weather, it was a great day to collect Fall leaves; take a look at some of the gorgeous sassafras leaves I found today — it’s my favorite tree!

Here’s an abstract painting inspired by Fall leaves, and I’ll be demonstrating some of the techniques I used to create it during the Natural Abstractions Workshop on November 17 at Plaza. It’s my last workshop of 2018, and you can register here:

Hands on Creativity is another Fall favorite; I had a great time  helping people paint watercolor leaves last weekend! I also found out about some exciting new products; some of them will definitely be turning up in future Mystery Techniques!
