We’re excited to start off our June blog lineup with a Student of the Month Virtual Solo Art Showcase featuring Pastimes for a Lifetime’s longtime art student, Naomi W.! She has been studying with Pastimes‘ founder/instructor Linda Wehrli for over 6 years. Did we mention she’s only 12 years old?
She has completed the following courses: Graphite 101, Oil Pastel 101, Watercolor 201, and is currently working on the Acrylics 301 Course.
Naomi’s accomplishments are being acknowledged this month with her very own Solo Virtual Art Showcase! On display are 19 works in Acrylics, Watercolor, Oil Pastel and Graphite. Stunning drawings and paintings of seascapes, animal portraits, still life, florals and architecture are mounted on virtual walls inside a chic warehouse-style gallery. Linda chose the upbeat jazz accompaniment. Selections from her solo show are below. So sit back, click the link, and enjoy the show!
