   WATCH THIS DEMO: Wet Canvases to Go
a safe way to fly with wet paintings in your suitcase
   
Step 1. Push Pin Spacers:
Press 4 pins into each canvas front - corners of one, center sides of other.
Tip
- Push pins in completely; stay within canvas edges.
  Step 2. Tape Together:
Align canvases, wet sides facing; tape around ends.
Tip - Extend canvases over table edge for stable taping.
  Step 3. Trash Bag Covere:
Insert canvases into trash bag; tape around for secure closure.
Tip - Fold back trash bag beforehand to keep wet paint from getting onto bag exterior.
Note: Attaching something rigid (like tagboard or cardboard) to canvas backs would protect from things pushing painting fronts together, especially if packed in a soft-sided suitcase.

Tanya Cimonetti:
"I was in your 'Drawing for Painters' class and felt very well taught. It was helpful to me to just feel like one of your high school students. Thank your for being such an excellent teacher. As a student, it's confidence building to feel your dynamic professionalism."

Ellie Morency:
"Thanks for all your good teaching and great motivating spirit. I had a wonderful time in your classes at the Vermont Art Event. You are such a breath of fresh air! I've been in a bit of a funk with my painting, but I'm ready to approach my work with some fresh insights and techniques as a result of
your "Painting Water" class.
I also ate up your demonstrations and critiques. Thanks too for all your positive energy and excellent organization as a teacher. Your classes are full of information and inspiration. I hope to be a part of more workshops in the future."

Annie Suess:
"I enjoyed your class so much! You introduced me to new techniques that I would not have thought of. You have a way of instilling confidence in your students regardless of their experience level. I loved the freshness of your approach to painting especially starting on vivid ground colors. I am excited about painting my first canvas starting on a red ground!"

 

 

David Greenfield:
"The lecture material, along with your book POWERCOLOR, have reignited my heartfelt supplication for the arts. Your class was my first after 35 yrs of heartache (no brush, no paint, nothing-too busy with business & work). NOW ,to learn and grow at the re-entry level, sparked that passion and desire to learn more, read more, visit artshows and study the masters. Thank you for the kick in the pants in your own sensitive and truthful way. It was an honor and privilege to sit in the classroom with one of the masters. May God provide the increase and peace in your life that allows you to be real. And you my dear friend are the real deal!"

"I am a watercolor painter who participated in your Tuesday Drawing class. It was just terrific. It both introduced some very helpful new ideas and was a great review of other concepts that I had forgotten. Three hours well spent! You are an excellent communicator.

Tony Radcliffe

"Thanks again for sharing your insight and talent. You remain the primary influence in my painting. It takes time for your simple concepts to sink in and make an impact on new artists' paintings. For example it took me two years to learn to let the red shine through instead of wanting to cover it up. I think that 5 day workshops allow more time for info to settle in and for you to interact with artists and provide feedback. Your time with painters is quite important; what you demonstrate or point out is excellent."
Tony Radcliffe
Sherry Pound

"Your workshops are full of applicable information, an amazing amount of individualized attention and pure joy! During the workshops, you are first and foremost an intuitive, giving teacher who knows when to instruct and when to let a fledgling artist find her own way. Color theory is introduced, explored in detail and immediately put into practice. Thank you for taking me on an exciting journey. I look forward to 'traveling' with you again!"    Sherry Pound West

"I took workshops with other artists and they were good, but yours was great!!
I really
learned a lot about the value in a picture that will carry me forward in how
I look at things in the future.
Again, thank you for bringing your knowledge to a place where others can learn and advance themselves!!"

"I very much enjoyed your workshop. You are an exceptional teacher! This was the best workshop I have ever attended. I feel that everyone else felt the same. You have a wonderful way of making everyone feel like we have created something special."

"Your Powercolor Painting workshop was the BEST I have ever taken. To teach art, it is not enough to be a good artist.
Having taken a couple of workshops from artistswhom I admired as artists and thought I would learn from, I know from whence I speak. Being a good (or great) teacher is the real key. And you, my dear, are a great teacher Your education background made a huge difference in tech quality of the workshop. You spent more time with each of us individually than I have ever experienced in a workshop. And that was quality time , too. Thank you Caroline. You have inspired me."
