Sea Turtles of the Florida Keys…
Bev Davis is a Published Artist, a One Stroke Certified Instructor, and a DecoArt Helping Artist and Designer. She was born and raised in colorful and vibrant Miami and lives a few short hours from the Florida Keys. One of her favorite things to paint is Sea Turtles. They are so large and majestic and easy going. Just standing on a highway overlooking the water may give you a chance to see one swimming along.Join Bev for this special seminar brought to you by your Board to celebrate MEMBER APPRECIATION. We will start the morning by decoupaging a map to your surface (the provided canvas board or a surface of your choice). We will take time out for the member appreciation lunch, also provided by the board. And then comes the real fun part – painting the sea turtles. Bev promises you will be taking home a finished painting!
