Dear ,
I think I can, I think I can. I'm getting there. Sleep has been lost to me this month - despite very noble efforts of meditation, tea drinking, exercise, and beyond. It will return I'm sure of it. In the meantime, I'm thrilled that part of the result of my lack of sleep has been the release of my new collection of Garden Watercolors!
They are done, they are uploaded, and awaiting you to scoop them up. Now - as a loyal subscriber, you are privy to two days of private online browsing and shopping of the new works. I will be making the collection public on Sunday morning. So, now through Saturday night, use the PASSWORD - SUBSCRIBER when you click this link to enter the site.
I wish I could say there's a blog post about the work, but I just didn't get to it. Be on the lookout for one soon. In the meantime, I've posted a little blurb in each image overviewing the collection. I plan to go back in and write a little more specific info about each work soon as well. If you want to know more about a particular image(s), you can scroll through Instagram where I wrote fairly lengthy posts, or you can email me.
Garden Watercolors are Here!

password to shop them on my site.

Tuesday Adult Watercolor Class NEWS

Tuesday AM Watercolor and More Moving to West Orange
Thank you for waiting - I'm finally able to share that I'll be offering my Tuesday morning class at A Sip of Art, located in the Whole Foods Shopping Plaza in West Orange. It was recently purchased by Cevil Joyce, of South Orange, who is herself an artist and alumnus of Savannah College of Art and Design. She’s looking to grow a fine
arts program there beyond the traditional paint and sip classes.
It was a difficult decision, partly due to limited options, but the options I had, varied greatly in their pros and cons. In the end I chose to work with Cevil due to her interest in growing the fine arts in WO, her willingness to make adjustments at A Sip of Art to reflect the fine arts and support me in my ventures, and the large studio space with easy,
free parking, and the ability to walk right into the studio. I hope that this choice proves to be a good one for you, as well as for me.
There are a few changes in terms of how you navigate the tuition options on Sawyer - per usual, you can enroll in all 10 classes, the difference is that now the 4 and 8 class options are available under class packs. If you purchase any of the flex classes, please email me the dates you plan to attend as this will impact
space.
Class size will be limited to 8, which was my max at Oh Canary. I plan to continue to provide one on one attention, and allow space for you to work. We will have lots of space to spread out at A Sip of Art - will be so refreshing.
SAVE 10% on TUITION through September 2nd.

Commissions Reminder - Book by 9/15
|
A gentle reminder - no need to panic. This is just a nudge due to my experience of people coming to me in December and asking, "can you do a custom . . . for Christmas?" It's just not
feasible - I already have some holiday projects I'm starting soon for customers. Custom artwork, like any art, takes time. I want to be able to dedicate the necessary time to make your work amazing. So, if you're considering a custom artwork, you MUST book by September 15th, in order to be guaranteed delivery for end of year holiday giving. Dog, Wedding Cake Portraits, and Home Portraits fall into these offerings. Help me create a lasting, memorable work of art
to honor something special in your life.
Dog Portraits at the West Orange Farmers Market - Saturday, September 14th
Look out for an email coming soon with signups for 15-minute dog portrait drawings on location on September 14th. It's part of Dog Days hosted by the West Orange Farmer's Market, which has been getting a lot of attention this summer. This will be a great opportunity to bring your furry friend for a live portrait drawing that you will enjoy forever. Details coming soon. I'm very close to having
this finalized - a follow up newsletter will come out soon - keep an eye out.
