As the weather changes, we will be offering 2 different kinds of workshops to relax and forget about the cold, as we unwind sit by the beautiful Snohomish River. Read on below and to the right for more information. See you soon!

Winter winds, wine and workshops

From November through February, the temperatures lower, the winds increase and we seek the warm shelters of friends and good food. Our wine and workshops offer good times to get out of the cold and enjoy a good glass of wine, hors d'ouevres and new friendships. As the weather starts warming during the Ides of March, it's still nice to get out of the breezes. So join us, get in touch with that inner artist of yours and relax on Sunday afternoon while learning about a great artist of the early 20th century and leave with a painting that you can give as a gift or display in your own home.

All artistic levels are welcome and no experience is necessary. Paints and canvas are all supplied. The medium is Acrylics.

GRANDMA MOSES


 

Lillian May Miller








These colorful artists show their delightful expressionistic leaning to abstract art. We'll post more soon.






Although the football games may have collided with the classes, even with just the three of us, we had a fun time...Yes, Bogie counts as an artist, he gave inspiration...and with just we opted out of the portrait and into the near abstract.


Oh, Don't You Just Love Those Hairless Dogs!





January 20th 2-5 ish

Anyone Want to Go to the Beach?


Although this was a particularly difficult piece and gave us a greater regard for Mabel Woodward, our painting couple was such fun, one couldn't help but have a good time with them around! These engineers are living proof that math and art live symbiotically together!




February 2nd, 3-7

Starry Night

Some people are a little jealous of the talent of others.... 

All's well that ends with everyone happy!


 



 




 

 





A Colorful Abstract with Flowers...or People

These four co-workers, looking for a fun weekend, landed in our Wine & Workshop on Sunday. We were flattered with their choice to study the contemporary CAFFI. They show GREAT style in your abstracts...but watch where you plant those daisies!

Kees van Dongen


Workshop in Acrylics on the life and talent of fauvist Kees van Dongen


An artist of color, it's time to do learn a bit about the life and talent of this tremendous fauve. Join us in this class of sheer fun the French way!

Would you mind Magritte-ing that please???

A favorite of mine and my most studied artist while in my teens, Rene Magritte had style and humor. This is an artist well worth studying to open the imagination and perhaps change our point of view. Belgian born, we will have food to celebrate his homeland, and of course, that has to include some fine chocolate. No matter your level, you will create a painting with the flair of Magritte and your own style shining through. Sign up for this out of the box workshop and expand your mind.

Irises into Spring

Van Gogh enjoyed the spring flowers. This artist had a unique and fluid way of presenting the world. So often his subject was flowers. We will delve into the thoughts of this unique post-impressionist as we develop our paintings while learning his techniques.
