:: Artist Walter Peterson

Aware of a special gift at an early age, Walter Peterson explored the world of art since childhood. Born in St Petersburg, and growing up in Florida, he attended Florida State University, majoring in fine art and graphic design. He began his professional career as a portrait painter in Atlanta, Georgia in 1993. After living and working in that city until 2006, he now resides in South Florida. His passion for art keeps him exploring a wide range of subject matter while still painting portraits.

A perfectionist at heart, Walter takes his paintings to the highest level of refinement and sense of reality, sharing with the viewer a very compelling artistic experience. In his constant quest for perfection, Peterson studies the works and techniques of great masters, from Bouguereau to John Singer Sargent, as well as the work of artists living and working today. Among them Walter has chosen to study with the renowned John de la Vega, who he credits for taking his work to a whole new level of artistic and technical refinement.

Although he is adept at portraying all ages, his works depicting children stand out as full of personality and vitality. Capturing the innocence of youth in his realistic style allows the artist to accentuate the delicate qualities of childhood. You can see a wide variety of different portraits at his website at www.painteroflife.com, as well as notable celebrities in the music industry and in the world of sports too.

Over the last 14 years Mr. Peterson has painted over 300 portraits throughout the southeast of family and corporate clients, while also creating his own studio works. Living in S. Florida now and inspired by the ocean, he has completed a series of marine life art that can be seen at http://www.celebratedimages.net. One of his paintings "Costa Rica Sail" was featured in the December 2009 issue of Marlin Magazine along with other noteworthy marine life artist's works from around the world.

Walter can be reached most days in his Boca Raton Studio. Please contact him with any questions regarding the available originals and prints on his websites, as well as commissioning an original portrait or painting.

7/2/2102 - 8/1/2012
July 2nd - August 1st Summer Wine Course
This 8 class wine course will teach you all about the major wine regions of the world. Each class 2.5 hours long. Please call or stop by to signup.
Price: $995.00

Master Sommelier of The Breakers, Palm Beach, Virginia Philip has opened her first namesake Wine Shop and Academy located on the corner of Banyan and Narcissus.

At nearly 1,800 square feet, and with 450 personally selected offerings spanning regions all over the globe priced as low as $10, the shop brings Philip's extensive and encompassing experience to the heart of West Palm Beach. The shop will also offer wine education programs utilizing Philip's extensive experience. Programs will range in focus from regional knowledge to food and wine pairings, as well as how to buy wine and build a cellar. Costs for the programs will be $25 to $50 per class, depending on the subject matter. A limited number of eight-week classes will be offered for those looking to immerse themselves in Philip's full range of knowledge.

Opening the store fulfills a long-time goal for Philip. "My career in retail began as a part-time wine clerk in Aspen, eventually leading to restaurant management at the Five Diamond/Five Star Award-winning resort The Little Nell in Aspen, but I loved that first job and promised myself that one day I would own my own store," she says.

Prior to moving to Palm Beach and joining The Breakers, Philip was the buyer for a chain of wine and liquor stores in San Antonio, Texas. She bought wine and cigars for 36 stores, purchasing wines at all spectrums of price points from jug wine to blue chip Bordeaux, Cult California and top end Burgundy. Recruited by The Breakers in late 2000, Philip moved to Palm Beach. The move allowed her to finish her pursuit of the Master Sommelier Diploma as well as be closer to family.
About Virginia Philip:

Philip's keen interest in wine began at an early age, leading her to take a wine course in college and work a summer at a New York State vineyard. She graduated Magna Cum Laude in 1989 with a B.S. in Hotel and Restaurant Management from Johnson & Wales University in Providence, Rhode Island. Prior to her arrival at The Breakers Palm Beach, Virginia worked at many accredited resorts and restaurants throughout the country, most notably the Five Diamond/Five Star Award-winning resort, The Little Nell, in Aspen, Colorado and was the wine buyer for 36 stores in San Antonio, Texas.

Virginia Philip became the tenth woman in the world to earn the extraordinary accreditation of Master Sommelier (there are now 21). This achievement was complemented when she earned the national title of "Best Sommelier of the United States" in 2002 from the American Sommelier Association. Virginia has also been on the Board of Directors for the Court of Master Sommeliers.

In her tenure as Wine Director for The Breakers in Palm Beach, Florida, Philip directed the beverage department for nine restaurants and bars and 14 wine lists, including the resort's prized 1,600-selection list, which has won the Wine Spectator's Grand Award every year since its inception
in 1981.

Philip has also recently been appointed the Wine Consultant for Azamara Club Cruises and Royal Caribbean International Cruises. Working with this company allows Virginia to engage her skill set, working with a wide diversity of wines from across the globe with this icon Cruise Ship Company.

Philip has appeared on "The Today Show" and "Food Network" and has been featured in Food and Wine, Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast and Decanter. She has also traveled extensively, broadening her knowledge of wines and spirits in Scotland, France, Italy, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Argentina, Uruguay, Greece and Canada and throughout the wine regions of the United States.

:: Facebook Party at Wings Plus, Coral Springs with Bill Lewis

Where: Wings Plus, 9880 W Sample Rd And 1235 N University Dr, Coral Springs, Fl 33065

Time: 6:00 PM - 9:00 PM

his event is hosted and sponsored by:
The Credit Report with Bill Lewis
https://www.facebook.com/TheCreditReportWithBillLewis

The first Facebook Family and Friends Meet-Up at Wings Plus in Coral Springs on April 30th went pretty well. Despite four straight days of rain, three NBA playoff games, two NHL playoff games, an earlier Miami Marlins game, and Dancing with the Stars, we still managed to have 141 friends turn out.

The second Facebook Family and Friends Meet-Up at Wings Plus in Coral Springs on May 22nd produced a slightly higher turnout. Despite yet another Miami Heat playoff game, torrential downpours, a tornado watch, flash flooding throughout Broward County, Dancing with the Stars on ABC and American Idol on FOX, we managed 151 in attendance.

Many of you wanted to come out but could not mainly because of the rain. Many of you had wanted me to reschedule the event. I don't cancel or reschedule events - the show will always go on.

With that said, I am planning a "make-up" event. If you missed the first party on April 30th or the second on May 22nd, please consider coming out on Tuesday, June 19th for an even bigger event. In fact, I might even schedule events through the end of 2012.

With so many friends and family between the social networks of Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google+, MySpace, Meetup and myLife, Bill Lewis has decided to stage another Facebook Friends and Family Meet-Up at Brian Walsh's Wings Plus in Coral Springs.

Generally considered as the place "Where the politically elite meet," Wings Plus is the perfect Northwest Broward venue to stage a meet and greet for Bill's social network of friends and family.

The Facebook Friends and Family Meet-Up will be held Tuesday, June 19th from 6 until 9pm at the Sample Road location of Wings Plus.

Please consider sharing this event invitation with your friends. Let's see whether the power of social media is really effective and jam pack Wings Plus the evening of June 19th.

For those of you that missed the first event on April 30th or the second event on May 22nd, I promise you will have a great time. That is if it doesn't rain.
