the artists that I&#8217;ve had the opportunity to study with in the workshops I&#8217;ve taken in my training to be an artist.&nbsp; Of all of the instructors I&#8217;ve had, he has influenced my style and approach to painting the most.&nbsp; This weekend at the Birds in Art opening, Carl&#8217;s work was hanging just across from my Mom&#8217;s &#8211; so we chatted a bit with him during part of the events.&nbsp; He went through his new book for us, page by page, discussing his pieces that are published in it in depth.<\/p>\n<p>I have said this before, but I have had so much encouragement and support from many wonderful people.&nbsp; I wouldn&#8217;t be the artist I am if they hadn&#8217;t taken the time.&nbsp; I can&#8217;t put into words how much they have helped me. :D&nbsp;<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"26\" height=\"17\" title=\"Rebecca Latham | Wildlife Artist\" alt=\"Rebecca Latham | Wildlife Artist\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lathamstudios.com\/rebeccasblog\/UserFiles\/Image\/Sig\/RL.gif?resize=26%2C17\" \/><\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"44\" height=\"42\" title=\"Latham Studios | Wildlife Art\" alt=\"Latham Studios | Wildlife Art\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lathamstudios.com\/rebeccasblog\/UserFiles\/Image\/Sig\/SwirlClip_1.gif?resize=44%2C42\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/Pride-Place-Carl-Brenders-Wildlife\/dp\/1904078222\/ref=sr_1_1\/202-7952648-1371045?ie=UTF8&amp;s=books&amp;qid=1189353312&amp;sr=8-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span class=\"srTitle\"><\/span><\/a><span class=\"bindingBlock\"><\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My family and I went to the Birds in Art exhibit this past weekend in Wausau, Wisconsin &#8211;
