"'Berry On Top' Cupcake"

Tomorrow starts a full day of painting ... yea!!!  Today there was no time to tackle anything big ... but a little time to paint something small. So "'Berry On Top' Cupcake was the result.

Studio Incamminati's Lea Colie Wight Coming to Town
If you're in the Washington DC area, and a portrait/figure painter, I highly recommend enrolling in a great workshop being taught by Lea Colie Wight, an award-winning artist and teaching fellow from Philadelphia's Studio Incamminati. The workshop will be held at the Great Falls School of Art, 1144 Walker Road, Suite G, Great Falls, VA from November 5-9. Get more info on the workshop on the Studio Incamminati web site -- where you can also register. Hurry!

I learned so much from Studio Incamminati's workshops as a beginning and intermediate painter -- and Lea was one of my favorite instructors -- for her kind and smart coaching.
