A Flamingo is in the Daily Paintings

I was cleaning out my closet recently and found this painting of a flamingo that I started several years ago.  I had gone to the San Diego Zoo and had taken some reference photos to work from.  At the time I was painting anything I could get a good photo of, so this trip came to mind!  Well, I took this with me to the studio and finished it today.  It still has wet paint on it.

I have added it to the Daily Paintings $100 category, if you click >>>here<<< you can see what else is there!

What are Paint Parties?

My latest venture downtown is Paint Parties.  I am still going to do the fine art, but who is more qualified to do a Paint Party than someone who has been painting fine art for 30 years?  I figure that makes me qualified lol.  What is a Paint Party? It's fun art as opposed to fine art. I have been doing them for several months now, below are photos from some of the classes:

You can see they make happy people!

Everyone who comes has a good time, can paint any color they want or follow my example painting.  Some images available for paint parties are shown above, to see them all go to the Paint Party category on my website, which you are already on and see them all.  I have a studio I can do small groups in, do every other week at Downtown Cafe, and am mobile so I can also do one at your group, event, birthday party, church etc.  More designs to come as well!
