I was honored to be able to teach a few fundamentals of acrylic painting to this group of women. We are in a “pandemic” and sometimes it’s just a relief to do something normal, something creative. Everyone chose their own sky color; did they want evergreen swags in the window or no?, snow on the peak of the steeple or no?
I was focused on teaching, refilling paint requests, offering perspective, when suddenly I discovered that the hostess of the evening had provided artichoke dip with bagel chips. I am such a sucker for a creamy dip with chips. Excuse me just a minute while I stuff my face.
Anyway, yes, the painting. Acrylic on an 11” X 14” canvas. The only “cheat” I offered was a template of the church.
Sort of in the middle of the project here with lots of detail to go.
Okay, sometimes you are just so intent on it turning out like the picture you have in your head.
The student surpasses the teacher…
