We will be at the Saxapahaw River Walk show on Sept 24 in Saxapahaw NC
Whats happening
It was REALLY hard to return from the NC Mountains and the incredible weather that we were able to experience during and after the Blowing Rock Charity horse show. Steve painted and painted and....painted :-).The fun thing about that area is that there is so many activities to choose from! Although I held the fort down in Raleigh, I then brought Ashley, our granddaughter back with me and the fun really began. And the exercise. If you really want to experience the mountains, bring a kid along! We gem mined, hiked (and hiked and...) the Blue Ridge trails, Grandfather Mountain, Linville Caverns, tubed down the Watauga River. Every muscle in my body ached. But oh, it was worth it!
Thank you everyone who ordered his paintings and my portraits! We are back at the studio.

Steve's Oils........
Brownie was one of a number of dog portraits done at the horse show.
"On the Rail" was commissioned as a gift for a trainer, I just had to catch her with the right hat on...
A series of his paintings are now housed in the beautiful Saxapahaw Art Gallery located in an old, restored mill on the Haw River outside Chapel Hill and Mebane. Visit the gallery and visit the local five star General Store!
As always, he is keeping up his 100 paintings in 100 days or is it 200 in 200 days?...:-)

Goings on at Art Student Academy:
Who knew that art classes would be such a big hit? Creating
art has always been our business and calling, but the past year our
studio has seen amazing growth in our art classes. Our specialty has
become the 2 hour "mini workshops" and participants love them!
We recently held a Mom's Night out for a Cary, NC group and they had a
blast! They all opted to paint a challenging view of the gardens at the
Louvre in Paris and did a superb job! Left the husbands at home
with the children and the paint and wine flowed! :-)
More fun news! We just held an Art and Wine class at the Twisted Vine in Wake Forest where
participants can enjoyed coffe or their favorite wine from sommelier,
Bob. The next one is scheduled for Tuesday
August 30.
