Paint Like Georgia! Georgia O’Keefe had a legendary style that we can learn! Mary Montegue Sikes will be at Gloucester Arts on Main Saturday March 28th, 10am to 4pm, to share her acrylic techniques with us! A full day of wonderful instruction with an experienced artist with lots of tricks to improve our paintings! All levels welcome – $45

From the moment Mary Montague Sikes saw paintings by Georgia O’Keeffe, she was intrigued. She loved the colors and designs of the paintings created by the artist during her days living near Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Over the years, Sikes has transferred that love to her elementary and high school art students. More recently, she has taught workshops that focus on the O’Keeffe paintings and enjoys inspiring other artists to create work in the manner of the iconic artist.

This workshop will focus on using floral close-ups to inspire. Sikes will demonstrate paintings she creates using her own photographs as working drawings. Students should bring a selection of floral photos they have taken.

Monti maintains studios at Crossroads Art Center on Staples Mill Rd. in Richmond and in West Point. Her work is represented by Prince George Art and Frame in Williamsburg.

She also writes & illustrates books!!
