Portflio Prep. madness has taken over Blu Moon ! With only a few more weeks until the holidays,

and audition time rapidly approaching, we are in high gear and moving full steam ahead as we work

to get our ten pieces done!  As always, I am impressed and amazed at the dedication and focus of my

young artists who immerse themselves in my art classes… Portfolio Prep. isn’t the only thing going

on here tho, not by a long shot!  I am working with a great group of people in my painting and drawing

classes as well… and I have a new group of kids getting ready for middle school art magnet auditions. ON TOP of all this, Blu Moon

Studio is a participant in Coconut Grove’s First Saturday Gallery Walk, and I have an exhibit and opening reception every month.

My current show is a collection of my paintings dealing with themes of feminine archetypes … ” Goddesses Revisited” .

This exhibit will run thru Nov.25…  remember to support local art!

Happy New Year from Blu Moon Studio !

// January 2nd, 2010 // No Comments » // Uncategorized

Greetings and Happy 2010 from Blu Moon Studio in beautiful Coconut Grove! I wish everyone a new year filled with optimism and inspiration! I think that after a difficult and challenging 2009 we are all ready to lighten up a bit and face the future with a spirit or renewal and creativity. This won’t solve the planets difficulties , but might allow us to find new paths and solutions to old problems. At any rate, a lighter heart helps to make things around you lighter… Blu Moon Studio of Art will continue to offer classes, workshops and events to nurture your creative spirit and inspire you . Whether you are an experienced artist or a beginner who” can’t draw a straight line “,  I hope you will find something at Blu Moon to awaken your imagination. I will be offering many of the same classes in 2010 and I will be adding new ones as well. I have some very interesting workshops and events planned too, so stay tuned!

I am currently working with a very talented and ambitious group of young artists in my Portfolio Preparation for Art Magnets class as they approach the dates of their art magnet school auditions. It takes dedication, focus and perseverance to prepare for these auditions, but they are rising to the challenge. The hard work is well worth the opportunity to attend the terrific programs offered by Dash, New World and others. My Portfolio Prep.class provides the structure, feedback and guidance that can help an aspiring applicant attain their goals. It is never too early to start preparing for the auditions, and my classes resume the week of January 4.

I will also continue to offer painting classes for adults in the up-coming year. I currently have a basic acrylic painting class on Monday evenings from 6:30 – 8:00 p.m. and  an intuitive acrylic painting class on Saturdays from 12:30-2:30. I also offer private classes in painting in oil or acrylic by appointment for $50.00 an hour. I will be adding other classes in a variety of media in the months to come.. please check my blog or website for updates…

I hope you will visit my studio and it is my hope that you will have a beautiful and happy new year. Remember, the key to your creativity lies within you!
