A New Inspiration Obsession

and learn from us, two ways!

I’ve had a deficit of inspiration lately while working on 2 very time-consuming projects that have kept me focused and busy. I was at a book meetup with

Jennifer Caloyeras

, discussing books and painting covers while chatting. I chose to reinterpret a Frida Kahlo cover, and then I kept going. I’m loving it.

A vintage book I use for some bird reference

A beautiful book of black and white photos of Palladio Villas. I want to paint some of the photos in the book too.

Insect reference!

Pottery reference

I’m not sure why I have this, It’s a vintage pamphlet about Cape Town South Africa.

This is from a portfolio of photos by a photographer from the 1800’s.

I have so many more to do, It’s an endless resource!

Next Sunday, August 4th is our next zoom class!

I’ll be adding some water reflections into my demo, along with some kind of water garden. It’ll be fun. All levels welcome, donation only!

Gayle Kabaker

with special guest Gavin Snider who will share how he finds summer inspiration.

One spot has opened up in our Spring 2025 Morocco Workshop. This will be a great one. We have taught at this venue and it’s beautiful, the warm colors are so inspiring,

Hope to see you August 4th, I’d love if you share this with someone who may enjoy it!

Let me know if you are inspired to paint book covers.
