A morning of beautiful art to critique, and a few surprises.  First of all, a warm welcome to our newest visitor, Julia, who is 104-years-old and takes painting lessons from several different instructors, including her daughter's friend, George Harth.  She is my new hero!  Mary Ann showed us her first attempt at acrylic painting, which is featured at the top of this post.  And, finally, there was Don with his nude!  Totally unexpected, and lovely.  We all shared a few laughs and enjoyed viewing and critiquing the body (sorry, had to say it) of work.
