OIL-PASTEL  - Jeanne MacKenzie
www.jeannemackenzie.com

Jeanne Mackenzie’s style of painting is a blend of impressionism and realism. Her paintings are done in oil with rich warm tones and a painterly application. These reflect the bold light and striking contrasts of her favorite still lifes and western landscapes.Jeanne Mackenzie is a Colorado resident living in the Fort Collins area where she is one of the founding members of the Rocky Mountain Plein Air Painters.
rings wonderful assurance that the experience is too profound to ever really be contained

WATERCOLOR - Robin Poteet

 ​
"I was asked to teach an ongoing adult watercolor class about 10 years ago and it became one of those life-changing events. I’m as passionate about teaching as I am abo​ut painting and am always honored and delighted to share my knowledge. Teaching has forced me to continue to learn, explore, produce, fine-tune my skills, be accountable, be articulate, inspire, encourage, analyze, and to offer heartfelt knowledge when I stand at the front of the room."
