Hey Picasso!  Here’s the Into The Brush painting class schedule for during the next 30 days.  Come join us for a fun time with brush in hand and paint on palette.  (Sometimes people get that mixed up so wear an old shirt when you come.)  We are located at the Fernberg Gallery which is 15 miles NE of Ely on a nice, asphalt road.  Think of us being on Ely’s main street but only 15 miles out of town.  Easy to find.  Takes about 20 minutes to get here.

Check out the various painting topics offered and sign up by giving us a call.   All materials provided in each class.  Reservations are required for each class.  If you show up without reservations, please don’t be upset if you can’t have a seat or the class was cancelled and you didn’t know it.   If you have a question, you can call us (218-365-5489), private message us in Facebook by searching Into The Brush and hitting the “Message” button, OR send an email to: intothebrush@gmail.com

Fall Cabin Specials

On By Red RockIn art program, Internet Specials, Into The Brush, Rental Cabins, Short Stay Cabin RentalsLeave a comment

 It’s a great time to visit us at Northwind Lodge and take advantage of our Fall Cabin Specials!

Fall weather is very calming particularly when walking around and taking in the brisk and fresh air.  The scenery is beautiful with deepening blue of the sky along with tones of red and orange, the yellowing leaves and all new changes that come about in this wonderful time of year!

Come enjoy fall fishing on beautiful Jasper Lake.  Take painting classes at the Fernberg Gallery a short walk from your cabin.  Learn how to put “fall”
on canvas with a brush.  Making lots of color meet each other in a brilliant display is just plain fun.  Painting it like yoga without all the stretching.  We still breathe, however.  You can almost feel your blood pressure drop as you slow down and enjoy the feel of canvas meeting your brush.  Everybody can do it.

Basswood – All Day

You must have a BWCA day-use motor permit.  If you do not have a permit, the guide can attempt to find a permit tag (it’s confusing and difficult government mumbo-jumbo) to see if a Basswood trip is possible during the time you are here.  Otherwise, for long-term reservations, please secure a day-use motor permit to Basswood in advance at  recreation.gov (click link).  Sorry, you must make a reservation in your own name.  We cannot do that service for you.
