| Here we are, almost into the middle of April and, although still a little brisk out, it was truly a beautiful morning. Chris continued to work on her latest collage. You can see a story developing. To see the progress, check out last week's blog photo. |
 |
| Donna has a new landscape in progress. The reference photo can be seen in the upper right. Look at how her colors "pop". |
 |
| An occasional break is a good thing. This is the time we can offer informal critiques with each other...always helpful. Both Karen and Donna work with color pencil. |
 |
| Karen was painting a floral. Here is the her painting in the early stages. |
 |
| Last week Karen began this painting. If you check last week's blog, you'll see it in progress. What a treat to see it completed. |
 |
| Marsha began a new painting, using color pencil. Here you can see her reference and the start of her creation. |
 |
| Sorry...this photo came out a little dark, but look at those smiles (and all those art supplies). From left to right: Mary Ann, Marsha, and Lee. |
 |
| Mary Ann's work in progress. She's working with watercolor today (reference can be seen upper right). |
 |
| Gerri was working from a photo she took of a bird in her yard. You can see her Kindle reference photo. She's working in color pencil today; isn't it beautiful. |
 |
| These are Pan Pastels and aren't they delicious? |
 |
| The start of Lee's painting, using her Pan Pastels. You can get a sense of how colors can be blended using the Pan Pastels. It will be fun to see it when it's done. |
 |
| The start of Betty's collage landscape. On Wednesday, May11, 2016 we are planning a mini-encaustic workshop for any artist who is interested. Of course, you are also free to work in any medium of your choice on that day, too. If you would like to work with the encaustics, here's a list of supplies to bring along: craft iron (if you have one...there will be extras available) table cloth to cover your work area (Important: NO plastic cloth!! Cotten cloth is safest) an extension cord crayons card stock ( cut into 3 x 5" sizes easiest to work with..there will be extra card stock available) old rimmed cookie sheet, or disposable aluminum cookie sheet Hope to see you next Wednesday. Have a great week. |
