The class was based on the exhibit of the Boise Fire Department. After a quick slide show of artist tradition painting objects, we were to pick an artifact from the exhibit that spoke to us and paint it in oils.

I wonder why?

The instructors painting, I love how he captured the three dimensionality of the hat.

We were able to paint right in the midst of the exhibit.
The only other time I was able to do this was at the Dallas Museum of art.

I like the brick background on the painting and the fact that we got to use real wood palettes.

I was very impressed with everyone's work. Some had never painted in oils before.
