Oil painting, learning new techniques!

I’m learning oils!! I’m a student of life

Here’s another piece I did in a private class

This was a fun piece to work on! Lots of layers, getting depth, and details in the water. One is mine and one is my students…

Ok, it’s official!!! I can teach ANYONE how to paint 🙌🏼🎨🥳 My mom FINALLY painted with me and look how amazing her bowl of cherries turned out! Bonus that we got to spend time together too 💕 Love you mom!

This is the sample piece I did for the self portrait painting theme for this semester.

It was a beautiful morning filled with community, art, music and so much fun. Thank you for being a part of this and all the support for these young artists 🎨🤩🙌🏼
