Two talented artists and brothers, Jason and Jed Dorsey, are going to make 10 people very happy during the popular Studio Tour that happens on Camano Island over mother’s day weekend (Friday-Sunday, May 6-8) and the following “encore” weekend (Saturday-Sunday, May 14-15). You could be one of those ten people.
Here’s how.
(1) You submit a favorite photo(s) of a place that you want a painting of: It could be your childhood home, a beautiful beach on a vacation, or a misty morning scene at your farm, whatever place that is special, beautiful and meaningful to you. (2) You select either Jason or Jed to paint the scene. And (3) you choose the size of your special painting.
Jason and Jed will then pick the photographs that they are going to paint. Jed is going to paint four and Jason six paintings. They will notify you if your painting is selected and when they plan to paint it so that if you are in the area you can watch the painting come to life.
