Three Special Artists Who Have Taught Me So Much

Lyn Belisle and I recently went to Boston for a 2 day painting class with Ellen Rolli, a fabulous painter and incredible teacher.  I learned so much from her not only about painting but about myself and how to approach my work.  Several years ago on Lyn's suggestion I took a 2 week painting class in Taos from Gwen Fox, also a wonderful painter and teacher who helped get me on the road to becoming a painter.  Below are two videos from those experiences.  Thanks to these 3 artist who have had such a positive influence on my life.

Paintings after Ellen Rolli's Class

Lyn Belisle and I took a 2 day workshop from a fabulous artist in Boston. Ellen Rolli is a wonderful abstract painter and teacher. My head is still swimming from the experience. Each day I can hardly wait to get out my paints and begin working. I have completed 3 paintings whereI have tried to incorporate some of what I took away from this exciting and stimulating experience.
