Both grand daughters love to draw and paint, so I decided to treat Heather to an art lesson with a dear friend of mine Caroll Shreeve of Blue Raven Studio |
Heather picked this moonlight painting to play with acrylic paint. |
Caroll on the left instructs mixing colors for the background layer. |
Mixing colors is fun and then painting the canvas to create an effect. |
Caroll demonstrates how to get the moonlight shadow in the lake. |
Heather practices making the moon for the painting, then the shadows. |
Tips from the teacher are very helpful... |
Standing away and looking to see the final effect helps you tell if its done! |

Drying off the painting so she can sign her masterpiece is the last step. |
Blue Raven Art Studio in Kayenta Utah near St. George is a fun place. |
Then it's important to clean the paint off your hands... |
