Presenting.....Eleven New Painters!

"Get Ready to Paint" classmates - College of Marin

Neither rain, nor sleet, nor....  well you get the idea...

Here are my students from today's class.  What great sports - willing to schlep all their supplies in rainy gray weather to try something new and get out of their comfort zone.  They look so serious but don't let that fool you - they seemed really happy to be pushing that paint around.

A couple have dabbled in art classes before but from what I heard most have not painted at all.  A few new friendships were forged....several decided they would go home and create big abstract paintings and then get together to 'show and tell'.... which is really a smart-and fun-way to look at one's work with a critical eye, get suggestions and pick up ideas from one another. Some are planning to try various classes to see where their journey takes them. 
Whatever they do....as long as they are loving it....what could be better?!
