New generation of weavers!!!

Recently, some of the artists from the Painting Studio who have seen what we do in the Tapestry Studio where drawn into the weaving. I have to confess that this makes me very happy because they are exploring new possibilities in different mediums.

Diego, Adrian, Katie and Vicky....welcome to the exciting world of weaving!!!!!!

Things get better and better for Katie!

a
Well by now you all must know Katie, our amazing member of the Painting Studio. She is just incredible, fun and tremendously talented. She also has those ways to get all the ideas and follow exactly the suggestions I make.
The Painting Studio would not be the same without you. You can tell by the look at Alexa behind you, just feeling great about your new artwork.

Once again my Dear Katie, I have to share with all my true congratulations!. Keep up and good luck now that you are now exploring another media: the tapestry weaving. What can I say, if I had an apprentice in weaving just like you you would be my right hand soon!... and I mean it!
Congratulations also to your parents who believe in your talents and support cour creativity. It is so important to have someone pushing you and believing in you in all you do.
And remember:
“As long as we have memories, we have yesterday. As long as we have hope, tomorrow awaits.
As long as we have ART today is beautiful.”

Gaby is having fun

Well not only is about learning to paint, but also to have fun, and so is Gaby finding her way to having fun. She is using completely her fingers to create these abstract flowers over a golden background. What a fabulous contrast!
Let's see how it ends in a couple of classes. Keep up with the blog to find out!

Vicky's purple flowers

Well done Vicky.
Not only you were working in a dark background but you did 2 different versions of the flower.
I can tell this is your favourite colour, isn't it!
Congratulations. Keep up working so hard, and now that you are exploring possibilities in weaving I wish you the best in this new technique. Cant wait to see what you can weave in your little loom.

Congratulations kids!

Great day for Maddison and Lauren. They are now enjoying the pleasure of finishing their first of many excercises on natural shapes in acrylics. Now they will be sketching and painting a still life composition.


Here of course, Taylor, Katie and Alicia would not be kept aside or left behind. They are from the Thursday late group, and you can tell already how talented they are. Good luck on your new projects.

Keep up ladies, and never stop smiling!

using different techniques and tools

Here we have Alexa again!
She is now in the process of working with spatula in an impressionist coloured flower composition.
The use of other techniques some other girls are applying is spounge for texturizing effects. They really enjoy this, especially for the spontaneity of the results.
Keep up Alexa, Maddi and Lauren!!!!

Wow, Fall is here and so much to see already!

Catalina, you did it again, and this time with flowers. This ended up a sweet composition in a small format, and now you will be exploring the wonders of free drawing and abstract. Good luck on this new ideas. Congratulations! great job again!!!




First of all, I would like to welcome some new faces:

Lauren and Maddi, my dear neighbours, who are finding their Leonardo Da Vinci captured inside their body! They are now in the process of learning the basics of figure in common shapes like pear and apple. Way to go ladies, keep up!




As the new Fall Season starts, the kids from the Oakville Painting Studio are back so energetic and ready to bring some more wonderful ideas into their canvases.













Here we also have 2 more new faces! Taylor and Alicia. best friends who decided to try a class together. Talented sweet girls. I wish you both an excellent time in the Studio.
Welcome aboard!


As you can see by the first excercise from Taylor, you can figure out that great projects are yet to come!













Now this is a Happy Face. I also love the idea that you write stories. Let's see how we can mannage to link both of your abilities in a creative way. Excellent job Taylor.






Paula and Mom, Carolina are again sharing a wonderful smile, especially because Paula commited to finish her painting inspired in an image of ferns.
She was a bit unfomfortable because she broke one of her toes and she is wearing a cast, but I hope soon she will be dancing again.
Congratulations on your new project.
