Happy May Day!! It’s such a pleasure when the dreary, cold winter comes to an end. When the lime-green buds appear on the trees, the pink cherry blossoms bloom, and the sunshine is bright, I feel like I am waking up.

May 3rd Zoom Workshop

This Sunday, May 3rd, 1-3 EST Gayle Kabaker and I will be hosting another 2 hour painting workshop, focusing on flowers, foliage, and faces. I am imagining a woman wandering through a lush flower garden, almost hidden by the abundance of stuff growing around her. I have loved painting flowers forever. Join us to see how we build up our page with layers, mix the colors, and explain how to simplify.

You can work in your sketchbook or on paper. We use acrylagouache but many people use what they have on hand and still learn a ton from the session.

This is a fantastic space to loosen up, try new approaches, and enjoy the process. There is no pressure here, just fun, joyful painting time.

No experience is needed. Our workshop is open to all levels and all ages, including kids. Just bring your curiosity and a willingness to explore.

We’re committed to making these workshops welcoming to all. The suggested contribution is $40, but we encourage you to pay what you can. Your support helps make these workshops sustainable and ensures everyone can participate, regardless of means.

We will be donating a portion of the proceeds to the @leagueofwomenvoters , because voting is our superpower, and every single voice should be counted in every election.

Everyone who registers, whether attending live or watching the replay, will receive the recording.

Here are some other flowers I have painted over the years

If you are looking for a beautiful Mother’s Day gift, this 44” square 100% cotton scarf with my art is a perfect gift. There is a limited amount left, as well as a few of the pink version. Click on the picture to bring you to the shop

Morocco February 2027

Come paint with us next February 2027 in person! Get away in the winter when it’s so drab. Morocco is filled with patterns and color, it’s so inspiring! There are just a few spots left; you don’t want to miss this one!

Here is a post about our February Morocco trip.

Hope to see you on Sunday for the Zoom!
