Upcoming Exhibit and Workshop
This has been a week of little painting and much preparation for an upcoming art exhibit and workshop at the Art School of Columbia County, located near the New York/ Massachusetts border. I’m thrilled to report that I’ve recently been invited to join the faculty of the Art School, which will give me a “home base” for offering workshops throughout the year. Though the school is small, it casts a wide net, and is situated in a place that is steeped with art, artists, and plenty of rural beauty and inspiration. If you live nearby, drop in or sign up!

I am very sorry to live in another continent! I would have loved very much to follow your lessons. Buon lavoro!
Likewise– it would be nice to meet you and see your artwork in person.
Congratulations and good luck with your venture 🌺
Thank you. It should be fun.
Yes, i’d be there, if I was there. 😉 That’s great to hear, Jean. There’s so much nice history, natural and human, in that Columbia County/western Mass. area. I’m glad it’s working out so well for you. The show opens soon! Have fun!
Yes. I’m really happy to have settled in this area and to have varied arts and cultural offerings, plus some lovely landscapes.
Congratulations. What a wonderful next step for you.

What an amazing opportunity.. congratulations Jean!
Thank Liz. Next I need to find a way back to NZ. That might have to be a five year plan!
Music to my ears Jean!
Sounds like a great opportunity, your students are so lucky to have you as their instructor.
I really enjoy teaching Sharon, so it will be nice to be able to do it a bit more often and closer to home.
So awesome and hope you post pics of the exhibit for us to see
I’m looking forward to the opening reception. Will try to take a few photos to share.
Congratulations. Best of luck and have fun.
