Chinese Brushwork Workshop hosted by Virginia

If you didn't attend Virginia's recent workshop on Chinese Brushwork, you missed out on a wonderful, fun filled day.  Virginia opened her home to us and her amazing studio space was perfectly arranged to accommodate those of us who had the opportunity to join her.  She even had decorated this space for the Chinese New Year and provided a delectable luncheon that Suzan, Maggie and Karla helped to prepare.  (Thank You Ladies-it was Delicious!)
The workshop was extremely relaxed and you knew you were in a friends inviting home the whole time.  The feeling of being welcome was always present.  Virginia was a gracious host and her teaching methods for this difficult style of painting were helpful and encouraging.  There was no stress, just simple brush strokes, combined to create some amazing watercolor paintings.  These paintings were created by Karla: Thank You for Sharing them with us!
The first one is the Chrysanthemum and the one below that is the plum blossom.
