Eclectic Fall 2015 Classes

Many people have been asking about fall classes.  I'm finally settling down after a full summer of travel to France and Massachusetts and ready to focus on art again.

Sunflowers have been a huge attraction to me since we came home and have inspired several paintings.  Since I'm an artist heavily influenced by my surroundings, it is just natural to begin these fall classes with sunflowers.  I've been asked to include some lessons on backgrounds so we'll spend some time navigating those waters.  We'll end this round of classes learning to collage some paintings that we may like, but want to freshen up a bit.

Eclectic 2015 Fall Classes

"Funflowers!"

It's been a few weeks since my last post.  I've had the joy, along with my husband, to have "Mimi and Papi Summer Camp 2015" with our three grandchildren for three weeks!

When I got back home and explored my little garden, I was pleased to see that my giant sunflowers were blooming along with the tendrils of morning glories climbing up the stems.  Just like I'd envisioned!  I've read how you can make a sunflower house but planting "walls" of sunflowers with morning glories climbing up the stems to eventually make a roof.  Some day I would love to try that, but for now I'm happy to have them just growing!

In between resting up, catching up on laundry and housework, I just can't resist setting aside "duty" to enjoy the moment and capture these beauties.  As I was typing the name on the digital file of photos I made the typo "funflowers" which I think I should keep as the name for this group!
