Come join in the fun of painting out-of-doors the many inspirational scenes around Lake Minnetonka in Excelsior, MN with Nancy Carney and her colorful palate and whimsical people. Nancy Carney, former MNWS member, had a studio and gallery in downtown Minneapolis where she taught painting for many years. Since moving to the Lowcountry of South Carolina two years ago, the scenery has changed, but her love of plein air painting has continued. She would love to share some of her techniques with you in this two-day workshop. Her web site is: www.nancycarney.com
