Watercolor Classes in Republic

One week from today I will be back in Republic Michigan teaching another watercolor class! We always have so much fun here; it's a low stress, relaxed environment and we get to make art! 

These classes are geared towards beginners and those who have always wanted to learn painting but never got the chance. We cover the basics and by attending classes you'll learn all about the possibilities in watercolor! 

. If you're interested in joining us don't be afraid to stop by! We'd love to have you! 

Classes are from 6-8pm and all materials are supplied. Cost is $45 per student and you'll walk away with 2-3 paintings and the knowledge and materials to create more! 

Contact Stacy at the Park City Art Gallery at (906) 376-2360 for questions or to register. 

All ages are welcome! 

Republic Watercolor Class

Last night I taught an Introduction To Watercolors class at Park City Gallery in Republic Michigan. We had so much fun! It was a nice way to fend off a cold winter night here in the U.P. Can not wait for spring to get here! 

I go back to teach a second class on the 16th. If you're interested in joining us please contact the gallery at (906) 376- 2360. 

Keepin' Busy!

Just wanted to drop in a say that yes I am still alive and yes, I am still making art. Summer has been keeping me busy!

Thanks so much to the SOBO Arts Council! I won the "Best Booth Display" award at the show in June. I was tickled! 

•  I recently joined a new gallery in Republic, due to open at the end of this month. Check them out if you're up in the Marquette area! Old Park City Gallery and Cafe! 
• I am signed up for two more arts festivals in August
• Kalkaska August 2nd 
• Art On The Lake in Curtis August 30th
• Look for me in Petoskey on August 1st during Petoskey Rocks Art Night. Local artists will be out around town demonstrating. 

I am also in the process of adding to my lake tile collection and painting new pieces for all three galleries. 

• Mackinac's Little Gallery on Mackinac Island 
• Northgoods in Petoskey

Also in the works: Children's Books.

We're back!

We're back! 

It was a fabulous weekend up in Republic. The weather was amazing, the vendors, artists and patrons were all friendly and upbeat.  My husband was able to come and we turned it into a mini vacation. 

The turn out for the festival was inspiring. People really seemed to be in support of it and word quickly spread. I was thrilled to make several new friends and was bestowed the honor of "Best In Show." 

All in all I think it was a great kick off for Mining The Arts. I look forward to next year! 

I'll get back to painting soon! Be sure to check back!

Mining The Arts This Weekend!

This weekend is the Mining The Arts Festival in Republic Michigan! 

It all begins on the 23rd and goes through the 25th, ending with a community bonfire. I'm anticipating a great weekend. Please consider coming out to this event. The town of Republic and all of the artists participating would be grateful! 

If you can't make it then please pray for good weather!

Mining The Arts

This summer I am proud to be taking part in the 1st annual Mining The Arts Festival in Republic, MI. Republic was once a small mining town in the Upper Peninsula but since the mine closed in 1980 times have been hard on the community. This summer they are throwing the festival to bring people back into the small town.

If you are an artist or crafts person there are still spaces available to participate. Contact Stacy at stacyvaughndavis@gmail.com. 

Otherwise, mark your calendars for May 23rd- 25th and come out and support this cool little place! It's located in the western U.P. south of Marquette. 

Also, this coming week I will be switching out my paintings at Petoskey District Library so be sure to stop by and see what's new! 

Have A Great Weekend!
