Happy
September and it’s still summer!!! We
had a very productive summer and hope you got to enjoy yours in every and any
way you wanted to. Last July, my husband
and I travelled to Scotland, where we went to discover the country and fell in
love with the culture – it’s people – and lifestyle. We took buses, trains and drove, not to
mention we walked, walked and walked some more.
I have been so inspired by the landscape that I painted 4 smaller paintings
already!! More in the works and it can
very well get piled high on my to-do list.
This brings
me on to August, where I painted new material and tried to finish a few
projects started in the spring. Some of
which are on display at the Oshawa Art Fall Show, which is on-going this
weekend – Sept. 9-10-11.
As September
pushes through, I know I will be busy once more teaching in various
locations. Among them, at the Visual
Arts Centre in Bowmanville, where I continue to teach Acrylic Abstract painting
every Thursdays starting Sept. 22nd.
Likewise, all my classes get started again both in senior’s community centres
in Oshawa and Whitby.
I am going
to be having a semi-private workshop at my home on Sept. 24-25, called
Abstracted Landscapes. We will go
through 2 different styles of taking a landscape and abstracting it and you
will learn many different approaches and techniques. I only take 4-6 people –
so if you are interested please email me right away!! marissa@marissasweet.com I do not run many workshops from my home
studio, so now is the time to grab it and register. $130.00/pp from 10-4 both days.
I cannot
wait to see all of you again as the fall term starts up again.
