Paul Leveille is here this week teaching a portrait workshop. Yesterday afternoon he did a demo portrait in oil.

Today and the next afternoon, he’ll do one demo in watercolor and the other in pastel.

Last night the group enjoyed a savory Lamb Tangine, shown here in the process of being prepared. It simmers until the lamb pieces are melt-in-your-mouth tender.

Dessert was carrot cake with a cream cheese frosting!

After Paul’s workshop is a 3-day workshop taught by Ellen Gavin – Painterly Oils of Horses and Dogs. Two of the people in Paul’s workshop are staying for Ellen’s, but there is still room in Ellen’s class.

As you might imagine, during our workshop season we are kept quite busy and it is hard to get away from the inn, even for just a haircut. But luckily one of our waitresses, Megan, is also a hairdresser! So chef Mark, scheduled her to cut his hair in our office.

So next time you are here and need a new hairdo, ask for Megan!
