Two New Seminars - "Five Days in Focus"
Country Friends is pleased to announce we are expanding the Seasons in the Country seminar to bring it closer to you.
Now renamed Five Days in Focus, the seminar will provide the same intensive study of the Bringle methods and styles you have come to recognize along with the fun and fellowship of other painters from around the country. The classes will run from Tuesday through Saturday. We’ll have a prepping – get acquainted party on Monday evening. The cost for the week is $375.00.
I’ll be teaching “Love At First Sight” at Spokane Art Supply (website) in Spokane, WA June 23 – 27, 2009. It’s worth the trip just to see this huge store! Purchase now ..
I’ll be teaching “Welcome Friends” at the fabulous Artful Endeavors Studio (website) in Raleigh, NC August 18-22, 2009. Liz Miller will be your gracious hostess and you will fall in love with her studio just like I did. Purchase now ...
Testimonial:
It's a joy using Ronnie Bringles' palette - so quick and easy to prepare. Best of all, once my acrylics are placed in it, they stay fresh and moist throughout the time I am painting a project ... and even beyond that! Saves time, paint and $'s!

It was such a privilege to paint one of the carved Santas for the new DAC book ... "Celebrate St. Nicholas". There are so many beautiful Santas to admire and to paint in this beautiful full color book. Be sure to order yours from The DAC.
