Whether you study with Celee in your hometown, at one of the schools across the country, or you join her in her beautiful studio location near Yosemite, it will be a wonderful experience. Learn not only actual florals, fruit or scenes but plenty of design ideas as well. Celee helps your own style to flourish as you paint in a relaxed but challenging environment. Celee prefers teaching in her own studio, but is available for out of the area seminars on a limited basis. Contact Celee to set up your own seminar OR reserve a seat in one of her annual Sierra Seminar sessions, like the three below that were offered in 2006.
Join Celee each Spring for a memorable four-day seminar. With her studio tucked in the Sierra mountain community of Mariposa, California, near Yosemite National Park, you can't help but feel inspired. Park your RV near our creek and watch our many deer or stay in a modest, new motel or private residence nearby. The refinement of the porcelain pieces you'll paint will contrast with the casual learning environment she's created in her studio and home. Bird lovers can even get to know Bryce's parrots on a first name basis at lunch! Information about Sierra
Seminars is mailed out each January for that spring. To have the details
e-mailed to you, send us your name and e-mail address, or even send us
your snail mail address. |

Ready for
a “tea” break in the studio; See “Lilacs/Agate Etched Gold
Tea Set” at www.celee.com. |
Multi-colored Peonies on a tray are either too easy or too challenging to keep some students awake! (sorry Jennie!) |

One student got more than she
bargained for: she went home with her Pears and Lilacs Vase,
made a decision to sell her San Francisco area home and move
near Mariposa, fell in love with and took home one of Bryce’s
hand fed macaws (shown here with us on the ramp into the studio), and a year later met Mr. Right (up here) and
got married! Now that’s what Celee calls a very successful
seminar! (results are not typical!) |

We slipped away for Celee’s demo at
a church during our Gilded Gold French Vanity Set seminar,
wearing every china painter’s version of a hat . . . crowns, of
course! |
Students from Oregon and Oklahoma joined California china painters along with Celee’s husband Bryce for the Early Bird Special at Crab Cakes Restaurant one evening. |
I won’t say that “a table creek side” is that hard to come by here, but in some seminars, we spy the deer heading for the bridge, and scramble to finish a first fire so we can beat them out for our favorite spot for lunch! |

Poor “Pickle” (Kilauea aka: Killer, Killer Diller, Dill Pickle) is still working on his delphinium and Bells of Ireland masterpiece… What a perfectionist! He says “If I can learn, you can too.”
Although Bryce doesn’t offer Private
Lessons, his classes seem to always fill! |
