Seriously, come paint with me!
I'm going to share some of my ideas about color mixing and paint application. And talk for a bit, too, about how artists can use the internet to promote and brand their work.
It's all going down in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, April 18th - 21st. More info here.
I'd love to hang with you!
(And if this workshop doesn't fit your calendar, there'a another one in Traverse City Michigan this August and a third one happening in Springfield Missouri this September)
Come on, let's throw some paint around together!!

The cover of "A Dog Named Blue," now available from Blurb publishers. When I first painted Amelia I never imagined that she would be re-christened "Blue" and inspire a book. In her defense, Amelia had a number of other partners in crime - animals who's portraits seemed to fall into a specific color category and prompt color-centric names. In typical ADD fashion, my brain started spinning 100mph. What if I turned those muses' paintings into a picture book for animal loving kids? I shared my idea with three friends in the industry, and they eagerly offered their expertise. I am truly indebted to them. Illustrator and author Matt Faulkner and children's book author and literacy expert Kristen Remenar edited an early version of the draft. They suggested key plot/conceptual changes that made it oodles better. Designer Elizabeth St. Hilaire Nelson worked her magic, pairing the images with perfectly color...
Une belle frimousse... et un regard qui en dit long... Vos cours doivent également en dire long. Dommage que vous soyez loin... J'aurais bien aimé voir l'influence qu'ils auraient sur moi qui suis totalement autodidacte.
