"Nobody sees a flower really; it is so small. We haven't time, and to see takes time - like to have a friend takes time." - Georgia O'Keefe

This Saturday is Playing with Paint time! I am excited to share the love of painting at my monthly acrylic painting class Saturday, October 10, from 10 am - 1 pm. Georgia O'Keefe is one of my favorite artists, and this month's theme is "A Brush with History:  Homage to O'Keefe."  I'll be picking up some fresh flowers from the local farm market and we will be taking the time to see, smell and paint the flowers while enjoying the friendships of like-minded people who love art as much as we do. 

Details and registration are here, but feel free to email me if you have any additional questions. It is amazing what you can accomplish when you are "playing with paint" and the pressure is off, and the focus is on having fun! Try something new, come join us...

Savoring Vacation Memories

My family and I just returned from a lovely spring break vacation in south Florida. I think my 11-y-o son said it best, "It's so warm!" There were many favorite moments on the trip. As I get my travel journal entries completed, I will post them here. In the meantime, if you are in the Wausau area this weekend, I invite you to my next Playing with Paint class this Saturday, April 11, from 10 am - 1 pm. We will be painting vacation memories - "Vacation Sunset" pictured above, or feel free to bring in your own vacation photo and I will mentor you along. And bring some of your favorite vacation stories, too! More details are on the website:  www.nancylaliberte.com/workshops

It is Playing with Paint time! After taking the summer off from teaching, I am excited to be starting up my monthly acrylic painting class, Playing with Paint, this Saturday from 10 am - 1 pm. Our theme for this session is farm market flower bouquets. 

Class is held at the Rib Mountain Hobby Lobby classroom on the second Saturday of each month, September through May. It is open to all levels from never painted before to experienced in painting, but want to try a new medium or just wanting to paint with others. All you need to bring is an 11 x 14 canvas. I supply everything else (paints, brushes, palette, clean up), including chocolate, and almonds (to justify eating the chocolate). Works for me! :)
