Love that they have no odor and will clean up with water! The Art Institute and Gallery art class room has good lighting and plenty of room to paint. . We work on composition, perspective and color balance, and develop a joy for painting. While there is nothing like drawing skills to improve your painting, it is not necessary to be able to draw to do a fine painting. Really!

"Lone loon" is the title of the watercolor/pastel I took to Worcester County Arts Council for their second Friday event in Berlin. "Shades of summer" was entered in the Art Institute and Gallery show, winning a second ribbon. Barbara Beachump won the third and her daughter Lois won the first.
