If you have read this far, the BARGAIN BIN is back! Follow the instructions for these bargains or contact me directly. The plan is to keep putting up new items every week or so. So keep an eye on it. Book mark it! It's been popular and helpful in the past as I'm trying to gain a bit more space in the studio. Thank you, thank you!
For more current info, photos, and inspiring articles :-)

Blessings on your brush,

You know how "time flies," right? It has been 13 months since the last update; so we'll just start with this year. :-)
We were happy to host Heidi England in February, and are looking forward to the German Christmas Tree she will be teaching in 2012. We don't have the photo yet, but you can check out the last three years on Heidi's page. We have a whole story going here with Mr. and Mrs. Claus already!
In November this year, Debbie Slavin and I will host Michele Walton. She will be teaching her "Hey Diddle Diddle" Nursery rhyme design that is chock full of interesting characters and techniques. Students will be supplying their own painting surfaces for this class or ordering the folding table and chairs. Be sure to look at the photos of this class on Michele's page.
In February I had a lovely visit and two days of painting with the Orlando Chapter. Shortly after that was the always fun Creative Painting Show in Las Vegas. Want to go next year, or to the Portland Regional in September? I'd be delighted to see you in one of my classes! Photos on Conference page.
