What’s new at the studio

 

Celebrating 21!

We recently held a special workshop to celebrate Samantha’s milestone birthday. A gathering of girlfriends to create a colorful piece of art for Sam’s apartment was the perfect way to mark the occasion. Each guest received a 5″ canvas and was asked to cover it with paint and whatever other materials they wanted to work with – the only specific request was that they use a heart shape as the focal point of their piece. We then mounted the canvases on an old piece of barn board and *PRESTO*! It was a fun day that no one will soon forget!

A new venue!

I am very pleased to report that several of my pieces are on display at the fabulous Petersham Art Center. Mittens, paintings, calendars and two types of notecards from Little House Art Studio are available for purchase – just in time for the holidays! Take a ride to Petersham – it’s a lovely way to spend an afternoon in New England. And don’t forget to stop at the Country Store on the common for a fantastic lunch!

Baskets!

I enjoyed a wonderful basket-making class at the Petersham Art Center yesterday, and learned how to make this lovely wine basket. It still needs to be stained, but I’m feeling pretty amazed with the results! Sue Morello is an awesome teacher, and I highly recommend taking a class at the center.
