2011 Farmers Road
Art Workshops
We are very excited to offer
art workshops and classes in 2011 here at the B&B in New Braunfels.
The instructors that are coming in to teach represent mixed medias
in studio oil, pastel and plein air painting. They are some of the
best recognized professionals in their fields of interest, as both
displaying artist and teaching instructors.
The new 800 sq. ft. studio is furnished with easels, tables, lights,
an art library, and everything else a good teaching environment
would require…and for outdoor painting in the Texas Hill Country we
have no shortage of beautiful countrysides, rivers, canyons, ranch
properties and country roads!
Check out the 2011 schedule and contact Mary at 1863farmroad@sbcglobal.net
for any additional information on classes or details to sign
up. Please make checks payable to Mary McIntosh and remember to note
which workshop, your address, phone # and email address for workshop
information.…accommodations can also be arranged either at the B&B or in the
area. B&B rates are discounted when enrolled in workshops.
