Fun Alert x 3

One Palm Tree

Seeing
Double, Double?

 Nope,
Triple,
Triple,
Triple?

Why on earth would I have 3 paintings of the same palm tree?????

I have never ventured into the world of painting on canvas,

lots of walls have seen my handy work

but actually painting a subject

has always intimated me.

Last week I was invited to a

PAINTING PARTY

hmmmmm...I liked the idea of the PARTY

but the PAINTING part I was a little leary of.

A local artist Beth Williams teaches art

in a rather unusual way...

check out Beth's work at

bwilliamsstudio.com

 One individual

 coordinates the PARTY (class)

invites, directions, etc.

The actual class is held in the home of the artist, Beth Williams.

After a very warm welcome we are all invited into her home

to the wonderful ambiance of candles, snacks and yummy deserts.

Followed by a home gallery tour of her wonderful work.

and then.......

we enter the classroom....

serenaded by crazy fun music,

a twirling mirror ball reflecting a rainbow of lights.

YEAH,

 we are now in the mood for a crazy party but...

it is time for the reluctant artist to be discovered.

Each of us is given a canvas,

paint brushes,

and of course,

 paint, then....

Beth talks us through painting a palm tree

and this is the result!

Each of us had a little different interpretation but

LOOK

they all look like a Palm Tree.

YEAH!!!!!

Not only did we have a fun evening together, 

we also have a fun little painting to

remember it by.

I must admit I was simply

AMAZED that I could paint

something that could be identified.

Oh I almost forgot.

Why do I have 3 paintings?????

My Mother and My Daughter

 also attended

the party so....................

we have a 3 generation gallery:)

I apologize for my absence but

the beach has been calling my name!

(my granddaughter's too)

Happy Early Spring!

Enjoy!
