LOVE IT! You did a great job on this! I know you will find a special place in your home for it! I presume near the Rooster! Thanks for your support and encouragement!!

OK Laura, I am impressed you now have your masterpiece as your screan saver on your phone!! AND that you feel it is worthy of framing!! BOY you make me feel good!

These two paintings are going to be side by side in Jennifers new house!! Bravo to you both!

Everyone was so excited about what they had painted we took seperate pictures and I promised that they would be famous today!

Wine and Paint-Still life

Last nights paint class was sooo much fun! We painted a still life of wine,grapes and a big hunk of cheese! Once again it is amazing to see the difference in each masterpiece! LOTS of smiles and budding artists were there! Great job to all!

Dine and Paint

The next Dine and Paint at Carson's Grille will be November 5th at 5:30 if you want to eat dinner and painting will begin at 6:00. Please arrive on time if you come just to paint. We have been running over lately and they close at 10:00. If you would like to join us, email me at apope@hsv.k12.al.us and reserve a spot!! I look forward to seeing you.

Just wanted to share these olive pictures because they will hang side by side. What fun it was! Glad you came Katie. I guess we need to work on the martini glass or olive branches to finish the wall hanging.

OLIVES Wine and Paint

We had such a relaxing time painting the olives. It was a bit more challenging than we all thought. The black olives especially because we had to get the colors right. ALL were great! Thanks ladies!! The only thing missing was the martini!

Dine and Paint Private Tuscany Party

OK ladies, I told you that you were talented. We had so much fun painting, laughing, dreaming of Tuscany and listening to "I think my tractor is sexy". I forgot my music so it made for an eventful night. One lady had to leave before this picture but all did sooo well. I am proud of the jobs you all did! Have fun on your cruise! Thanks for the fun and I hope to see you all after your trip and paint some more.

Tuscan Landscape

Last night we painted a Tuscan Landscape. ALL of the pictures were beautiful. We incorporated ideas from two different pictures. I loved each masterpiece. YOU all did a fantastic job! Let me tell you about our special guest. I arrived before 5:00 to get prepared and the room had a squirrel in it. He had been there for days. We had to bring in John Tanner and Dan Fincher to help scare him out. It was quite an adventure. He had eaten or taken a bite from corks, plates, paper towels, window ledges--must I go on. Once we were able to get to our painting,the night turned out to be a huge success. Thanks to all who made it special for me. See you soon!

"Crabby" afternoon

11x14 Acrylic on Canvas

Yesterday it was cold, foggy, rainy and I just felt like painting this on this "crabby" afternoon. Let me know if you'd like to add a class in the calendar sometime to paint it. Of course the colors are up to you. I found a picture in a Coastal Living magazine and felt like it would be fun to paint-and it was.

Olives-Yummy!
