ART LESSONS AT SWEETWATER......

July 9th, 16th, and 23rd,  4:00-6:00 p.m.

I had never considered teaching art, but due to popular demand (many requests from people wanting me to teach them) I have decided to dedicate three of my Saturday afternoons to help people with the desire to draw and paint to learn a few basic principles that will help them get started on a new fun hobby. 

Lessons will be held at the Sweetwater Mansion and there should be many interesting things to chose from at this historic location to draw and paint.

A small fee will be charged to cover expenses.

Anyone interested may email me at phyllist3@yahoo.com  for a supply list.

 I thoroughly enjoyed teaching a great group at Sweetwater.  We all had a lot of fun, and I hope the students learned a little in the process.

The art students paint Sweetwater....Great job, girls!!!

Book Signing at Sweetwater

October, 2010

Phyllis White and Brent Raynes were on hand to sell and sign their books during the Sweetwater tours, October 29-30, 2010.

 The old Sweetwater Plantation Mansion of Florence, Alabama, is undergoing renovations to bring it back to its original 1800's glory. Sweetwater was once the home of Alabama Govenor  Robert Patton. Even though the mansion is still under reconstruction, tours are being conducted  during special events.

  All proceeds  go toward restoration expenses.

      Please go out and  support the Sweetwater Project, tour the property and learn a little of its history.
