Meeting at Cape Coral Art League

Swimming Free (Acrylic)

with Martha Stevenson

Student artist highly allergic!

Due to a student artist with a serious allergy to certain painting products, we are asking that you refrain from bringing these with you into the classroom.

  • Turpinoid Natural by Martin Weber
  • Any Krylon product
While you may never hold a live sea turtle hatchling in your hand, you can create your own beautiful turtle picture with Martha Stevenson as she shares her sea turtle design. If the colors shown here do not match your home decor, bring your own favorites. This painting is easily adapted to fill that special spot on your wall and will bring a pop of color into your room. 


If you haven’t tried your hand with this new doodle art form, this is a good opportunity. Martha calls this relaxing way to paint “Martha Doodles”…

All of Florida loves turtles. You will love this turtle and will want to share the fun and bring a guest with you.        Guests are always welcome!
