Back from Florida!

I am now a certified Woil instructor!  I also am a CERTIFYING Woil instructor!  I will run a Woil certification next year.  I had a wonderful time at the Dewberry's, painting five oil paintings in two and a half days - Whew!  Unfortunately I won't be teaching any of the pieces I learned because I have to save them for the certification, but I am working on some new pieces of my own as well as some of Donna's other patterns to teach next year.

Skill Builder Workshop/Open Paint this Sunday!

Painters welcome!  Come to my house this Sunday, November 4th at 1 pm for a day of open painting!  Cost is $10.

My main intention is to give you time to work through your skill builder independent studies with me on hand to answer questions, but you can just come and paint if you want!  Bring a previous class project (or two) that you just never finished.  Do you have a gift idea for Christmas that you just need a little help on to get you started?  I won't be teaching a class, but I will be there to help and will be available to perform skill builder evaluations.  Skill builder evaluations are one on one reviews of your projects and exercises from a skill builder, and each costs $25.  Note that the $10 open paint fee is waived with two or more Skill Builder Evaluations.

Please RSVP by e-mail at danellesdesigns@hotmail.com or call me at 724-772-9712.  Let me know if you want any skill builder evaluations too.  I plan on ordering a pizza for anyone that wants to chip in and you are welcome to bring your own food (leftover Halloween Candy anyone?).  It is going to be a fun day.  I hope to see you there!
