Paint brushes, acrylic paints, pallets, and water buckets all add up to fun in the park! (Matty and I went crazy buying all the supplies. There's plenty to go around!) |

Class time and description
The workshop runs from 1:00 - 3:00, but it is not a structured class. We're going to follow a drop-in format...drop in any time, paint a few birds, and leave when you feel like it. You don't have to be there for the duration of the workshop, because we're just painting birds for fun. No experience is necessary...kids and adults are welcome!
The Little Miami Scenic River and Trail Center is located in downtown Loveland next to Nisbet Park along the bike trail. It is part of Little Miami, Inc. (LMI). LMI was founded in 1967 and has been the driving force behind protecting and restoring the Little Miami River. LMI owns over 100 nature preserves along the Little Miami and several of its tributaries. You can become a volunteer if you want to help protect the Little Miami River, or you can donate to the cause. Click here for more information on LMI.

it looks like you have created and experience where every student will walk away with a smile about what they have done! thank you for sharing how you drew your birds. lovely class to you.
What a wonderful thing to do for your community - they are lucky!
Had to stop and see what you are painting these days....you are so talented and I just love your paintings! I think the cardinal is my favorite here.
If I lived just a wee bit closer I'd be there! Sounds like it'll be a great workshop.
Have fun with our event! I hope you get a good number. Hmmm...my bird still looks like two circles. I better stick to photography.
...thanks, everyone! Matty and I were exhausted at the end of the workshop. So many people came....from 2 years old to 60 years old, lots of people learned how to paint birds today. The flow of people was constant, and we worked hard to keep up with everyone. So many beautiful paintings of birds were created today at the LMI Center.
