June Flower Power Encore at The National Art League

A bonanza of beauty and blooms welcomed artists entering the new 2nd floor studio at the National Art League. The occasion is Shelli Robiner-Ardizzone's 9th year of this popular spring "Flower Power" weekend, June 27-28 (added the 29th).

This festive atmosphere marks an annual celebration of color and joy for Flower Painting enthusiasts who gather and are inspired to create art which endures beyond the season.

Flowers are purchased by Shelli at wholesale markets, and presented in lavish set-ups, for painters of all media who look forward to this painting opportunity.

This popular workshop began in 2000 as a Memorial Tribute to honor Lisa Specht, mentor, instructor and past president of the Art Students League of NY. For many years the workshop was held at Woman's Studio Center in LIC. In recent years the Workshop has been presented at NAL, Great Neck Adult Ed., Cumberland, and at The Art Guild/Elderfields.

"Flower Power" celebrations now include , "Flowers in Summer" and "Flowers in February"

Shelli Robiner-Ardizzone is an NAL award winning artist in oil and pastel. She will be offering a Saturday Class at NAL 1-4, beginning in Sept '09.

National Art League Award

Nice happening, the National Art League Annual awarded me a Merit Award and the guy in the picture won Second Prize. Besides being a great artist, he happens to be my husband Joe.

This was truly a first for us, juried into the same show, and BOTH taking prizes.



This is the Pastel painting of mine that won the Marie & Frank Cole Award.
