Little Brown Pot


Jody's Little Brown Pot - 8" x 10" oil on stretched canvas

I've been taking a weekly still life oil painting class with Jody Thompson at SouthGate Studio.  Jody is a down-to-earth individual with loads of talent and helpful tips about painting.  Each six week session, he sets up various still life groupings, that we can choose from, or we can bring in our own subject matter to paint.  It's real motivation to work with other artists in a studio situation, not to mention getting to know other people with the same interests.  This was from my first session and (to me) somewhat tedious in detail.
