Welcome to Week 39 of Year 4 at Paint Party Friday!

 

This week the random number generator chose # 48 - Dia. Recently invited to be the "Featured Artist" for the gallery at a winery, Dia showed new work, and a few older ones, both at the gallery and to us, on her blog. Please check out the rest of the show!

Paint Party Friday: Week 36, Year 4 Check In

Welcome to Week 36 of Year 4 at Paint Party Friday - we're so glad you're here!

This week, the random.org number generator chose #9 - Carola Bartz.  It seems that the number generator has chosen a very timely post once again, as many of us are experiencing first snowfalls of the season... Last week, Carola shared some adorable snowmen paintings that were created on scrap wood that was leftover from a home improvement project.  The ornaments she made are sure to make the season bright!
