for the last while.  About 5 years ago I made

 on a daily basis and I have loved 
every minute of making that daily choice a reality.
I am still learning and growing everyday
 and I absolutely love sharing my journey
 and my creative process with fellow artists."

Come paint with Jeanne-Marie Webb

If you are in the North Carolina area and would like to meet me 

in person and would like to paint with me for a few hours, then pop on over.  

We have opened up an afternoon slot so we can paint together. 

I will be sharing a demonstration of how I am inspired by a reference,

 image or sculpture and how I would use it intuitively in my painted pieces 

and how they take on a life of their own.

There is something so beautiful about peers painting together and 

sharing together and I look forward to doing this with you. 

$65. (materials not included) registration required

Oct 9-13th 2017 with Gillian Lee Smith

Class description

During this 5-day course, we will be working on creating highly expressive portraits in acrylic paints. Beginning with charcoal portraits to explore shadows and light, mark making and expression we will then move onto the glorious medium of oil painting on canvas. 

My own work focusses not on creating perfection but in representing the spirit of humanity with layers, expressive mark making and use of colour and contrast.

We will be exploring great contrasts of dark and light, atmosphere, expression, composition and surface. We will also be thinking about portraying emotion and the human spirit in our work to create atmospheric and expressive representations of ourselves and others. You will create several drawings and portrait paintings and finish the week with a host of tips to further develop your own portrait paintings.

This class is for those with some portrait painting experience.

(We are hoping to have a live model to work from in the studio!)

Workshop cost for 5 full days $750.

In the past, eclectic mix of  instructors & workshops
has brought students
from as far away as Florida, Georgia, Ohio,
Kentucky, Virginia, Maryland, West Virginia, Colorado,
California, New Jersey,Tennessee, and of
course, South Carolina  to
   our  studio in Saluda.

My gosh, we even had someone come from England!
And some of our instructors traveled from
California, Canada, England &  Australia, as well as
those who live in our own little mountain town of Saluda
and towns and villages nearby.
Read on, and you
will discover that our plans for
