"A connection to nature is essential for our well-being. My contemporary Impressionist landscape paintings are designed to evoke a sense of serenity and closeness to the natural world.

"Focused on the healing and spiritual power of Nature, these images transform interior spaces. Your environment becomes more inviting and calming, whether in a home or business setting. My artwork uplifts the mood and soothes the senses.

"Enhance your space with art that resonates with nature’s tranquility.”
--Stephen Henning

Snowman Woodcarving and Paint

Instructor: Joe Hauger
Art of the Lakes Gallery
November 7, 9:30am - 4:00pm

It's that time of the year for winter fun! What better way to start the season than with a woodcarving lesson of a snowman. Joe Hauger will introduce the best and safest knife stroke techniques as well as give you a chance to try different carving knives. We'll briefly touch on topics including carving "with the grain", how to keep the knife sharp, and painting techniques. Knives & gloves provided by the instructor, but feel free to bring your own carving tools. ("Flat plane" style carving knives will work best.) Students will get to take home a completed snowman about the size of a pop can.

This class is open to all adults, and minors 12 & older if accompanied by an adult. (The adult wouldn't need to pay if he/she does not carve.)
