WORKSHOPS

Nova Scotia Plein Air Painting Adventure - Sept. 29 to Oct. 3, 2008

The Nova Scotia trip in September 2007 was so successful that we are doing it again September 29 to October 3, 2008. The scenery was absolutely spectacular and the boats were awesome (even if they moved a lot). Fun was had by everyone. Even the waitresses had great comments when we did the critique in the pub on the last day. This year we have a few new painting locations with some of the favourites from last trip. And if we're lucky, the wonderful lady that lived across from the salt water marsh may just make us more lemonade again.
