Cheryl Martin has been a painting instructor for 25 years teaching the “Bob Ross Joy of Painting” method in public schools, private studios, community facilities, churches and her own studio in the Denver area.
Three years ago she moved to Georgia and pursued her career through Hobby Lobby in Statesboro and AC Moore in Savannah.
She opened a studio on Wilmington Island under the name of Island Palette. In November she closed the studio to allow more time for instructing and painting in various locations. She and her husband, Laymon, moved to Tybee in December to enable her to enjoy the beach and listen to the surf while she painted. She has her own studio behind her home on Tybee and is currently working on her own paintings with open windows, cool breezes and the sounds of the waves on the beach…its her heaven on earth!!
Cheryl is continuing to hold painting classes in the area and in the Tybee community where she holds classes at the Tybee Art association building located at #7 Cedarwood, Tybee Island .
She offers “Bob Ross” oil painting classes that teach everyone (even beginners) how to paint lovely seascapes, landscapes and florals in one day. Students complete an 18X24 oil painting using step by step methods. Cheryl furnishes all materials including easels, canvas, paints and brushes. All you need to bring is a roll of paper towels and wear old clothes! (fee for class…fifty-five dollars)
