These paintings were some of my class samples for the Triad class at Valley Ridge - they are pieces that I made working with different triads. It was really gratifying to see how each person evolved after doing the Triad work. I could hear them talking among themselves, sharing their mixing experiences, trying new combos - oh, I felt like a little mother hen, just puffed up with excitement that my little chicks were exploring new horizons. And their paintings, ooh la la!!!!
As for me......well, I hardly know where to start. The trip was exhilarating is so many ways. Although I taught for 4 days straight, I feel energized and just so very excited to get back to my own painting. I have ideas, oh how I have ideas, so many that my head is spinning a bit, all in the best way possible.
I have today (only today, yikes) to get grounded here at the home-front. Then a l-o-n-g 12 hour day at the store tomorrow that includes a meeting, my regular work, and the first week of my ongoing Decorative Abstract Painting Class. We still have openings if you are interested - the class meets from 6-8:30 for 4-Wednesdays. Cost of $160 includes everything and you will end up with a finished abstract work for your home. I think it is going to be fun.
More Valley Ridge scenery and student work will be coming soon, so stay tuned.

These are dreamy and beautiful. Looks like you had a really good class at VR.
ReplyDeleteI think you should come to Colorado to sketch!
It was great meeting you...you are a riot! Learned so much from you and would gladly take another class. I'll share my work when I get it out of the 'ugly stage' and will also share the pic of the bike :)
ReplyDeleteNow I'm looking forward to your color class in September all the more :-)

Valley Ridge was very lucky to have you teach your wonderful abstracts and acrylic techniques. I wish I would have been able to attend and take a class for you, my friend.
