Morning class!
What a creative couple of months it has been for students following the courses and lessons!
Some had never held a paintbrush before, while others were returning to art after years away.
Each painting tells not just a story of subject matter, but of personal growth. The tentative lines have given way to confident brushstrokes.
Amazing work.

I love that Katie has already achieved one of her goals with this piece: “My 2025 goal was to paint something I was proud enough of to go on the wall. I’m delighted that your classes have helped me achieve this.” And with such delicate observation of the petals, it’s easy to see why.
