Getting ready for exhibition



 

 Maddy above is enjoying one of the mosy exciting mometns:
signing!
 Many kids are worried to write ugly letter or make a mistake at the last moment. Let me tell you. I know it reflects your character, but it also tells so much about your effort and happy times you had while in the process of painting it.


Great job Maddy. It was really challenging to get the feathers, the colour mixes and the background!
 On this one side and below we see Sarah's mischievous birds in a branch stealing a cherry!


Difficult position and the effect of certain movements made this also a challenging one!




Congrats my Dear Sarah!







 Gennie finished her onions on an antique style. She was excited to try different techniques and long, short, flat or round brushes plus adding the use of sponge!



Great jog Gennie...I wonder what comes next?

I am sure you will find an interesting spot in your home for this one..




The smell and senses of  nature can be felt everywhere. Lavender fields and lilies can be spotted on some of the easels!



Our members have been very busy getting their artworks ready for our wonderful 4th Anniversary. It promises to be a wonderful show!





Lavender not only carries my favourite colour, it was my Dad.s favourite plant. Smell and colour are just delicious to have around in any garden. This field is from Provence....




Here another wonderful smile of Camilla...We learnt about Van Gogh and hes amazing production..of course, what all the kids always remembers is that :" ..it is the guy that cut his ear!.."
More and more birds still are flying in between the walls of our Studio. it seems these kids just have this ability to catch them whether on flight or still on a branch.


Cami and Jamie proud to share their hummingbirds wioth the neigourhood. What a great present for Fathers Day!




I have always loved hummingbirds! amazing fast creatures with incredible (and challenging) colours! great job girls....





 Birds , birds,birds...and more birds.


 It is amazing how so many different birds these kids came up with. You can tell that Summer is close. Colour is in the air and the need to go outside is intense!


Congratulations Nichole and Nicholas for your colourful and expressive paintings!
Nicholas. I appreciate your patience. I know how much you loooove to sketch and that painting is not your cup of tea, but look how pretty it ended up!
Now, back to sketch....OK! I agree. Lets follow our passions and do what we enjoy doing. After all, Art has to have freedom, doesn't it?
