Joy Dechene

This is Joy's first acrylic painting.  She was working at a disadvantage with some pretty bad paint, but managed to pull it off nicely don't you think?

Marcile Stockburger

This is Marcile's first attempt with acrylic paints. Great first painting!  I think that she will enjoy the departure from watercolors.

Sharon Perdue

Love this expressive little pear.

Thank You Sun City Visual Arts


Thank you to the artists of the Sun City Visual Arts Club for being a part of my workshop.  I really enjoyed meeting each of you, and watching you grow in your ability to paint with acrylics.  You never cease to amaze me!  

Ned Morris

Ned isn't quite finished with this colorful painting of a plane taking off, but I think it's great just the way it is.  What do you think of the orange and yellow sky?  Pretty breathtaking, huh!

Carol Kemna


Carol started this workshop being a watercolor artist - very tight and controlled in her painting.  She ended it with this marvelous poppy painting that is so loose and expressive - and she hated it!  Too bad, Carol, I love it so I posted it.
