Coastal Art ~ Loran Chavez

I am a Professional Artist in Fairhope, Alabama. My work is in multiple media but my favorite is Acrylics~next in line Watercolors and then Oils. My favorite subjects include local wildlife, landscape~usually with boats, and obsession paintings (looking at other peoples obsessions in a new way).I participate in a lot of outdoor shows with helper and spouse Christopher. I do several outdoor shows a year and this blog is about the adventures getting ready for them.

By the Sea~By the Sea~By the Beautiful Sea!

What a wonderful week it has been! I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching the teens at the Mobile Museum of Art! Art Blast is a wonderful experience for children to have even if they only take one class a day. (I have a lot of fun too!) Next week I have two more classes, Impressive Impressionism and 3-D art for 7-12 yr olds. It should prove to be interesting!
I have also been asked to give a talk to Don't Throw That Away! an Art Discover Workshop at the Museum on Saturday September 5th, 2009 from 9:30 until noon. The "talk" will only be about 20 mins., the rest of the time we create!
This painting was created during my class at the Museum today. We all had paint all over us as well as the canvas. It was all great fun! I LOVE my job.
