Folk Art Landscape

For the past few weeks, on and off I have been doing a great online class with Karen Gartel. I bought two classes for the price of one before Christmas so I have done the landscapes workshop. The other one is a portrait class and I will get around to that one day.

This is on an 8" x 24" canvas and I think what she does with these landscapes is just so cute. I am working on several of them so you will be seeing them in upcoming blog posts. I am working on two at once now that are daytime ones and I did a few practice small ones which I will also post.
Michelle Brown is going to do another waterclass class on Spring Flowers!! I am so excited so I guess when that time comes you will see lots of spring flowers. I am still painting my Poppies too, but not posting them.

Since I have this studio now and I come over here every day---I do tend to get alot done. I'm just glad you don't see my laundry pile!! :)

  6. Very nice work, Martha. I took this class from Karyn. It changed my painting style. I'm also taking her faces online class.
