The room is filled with good-natured chit-chat, laughter and soft music. Each student works at his/her own pace, each exploring various media and styles - Oil. Acrylic. Watercolour. Pencil. Abstract. Landscape. Still-life. The art students hail from all walks of life and range in age from teens to seniors.  Some work on portfolios for entrance to art college and others sign up ... yearning to try something new and different. As I make my way between the easels and tables, I stop to see each student's progress, to answer questions and to provide one-on-one guidance.

Workshops - The workshops focus on practicing all paint media techniques while working on a subject or theme of choice.
