The Enchanted Goat Oil Painting going online today

This painting titled "The Enchanted Goat" is going online today at my Etsy gallery. The painting is very large (28 by 36.5 inches) and is painted in the Vincent Van Gogh style- so say my customers at the Ithaca farmers market. It does have rich vibrant colors with thick textured layers oil paint. This is part of a series of 12 animals of the zodiac paintings I will be creating this year.

Kids Art Camp in Aurora

No blog time for me this week. I was busy teaching about 10 little artists at my first summer week long art camp. It was a lot of fun- but very BUSY. The kids named the camp "Camp creative". we spend a lot of time working on one painting featuring one of the historical buildings in Aurora. We learned a bit about why the Town of Aurora was named and the significance of Peach trees in this area. In the afternoons we listened to records and created all sorts of art with different mediums. Great kids, Great art and Great fun.
