Mickey finished up my new studio in the garage. January will start new classes. I can fit 18 students in. Left is the Mary Kingslan Gibilisco Violin pattern we did Dec 17.


Classes this year will be mostly in oils and will feature a variety of subjects including still life, animals, birds, landscapes, flowers and portraits. I am planning to have one all-day class per month. If you wish to be included in my online mailing list, email me at the above address.
