2nd Monday Critiques, December 10, 2018

At our last critique of 2018, we had some very lovely work to view, as usual.  It's so nice to be able to sit with a group of artists and share ideas and offer positive, encouraging comments, along with suggestions for making our images stronger.  I think we all benefit from the feedback received at these meetings.  If you have not been to one of our critique groups, please make that one of your New Year's Resolutions.  We are always happy to see new faces and new artwork.

Bonnie's cool kitty is slowly, but surely being finalized.

Donna is moving along with another sylvan landscape.

Creating away on a dreary November day.

We are researching and learning as we work.

Photos are from our most recent critique.  The first half of our session was spent critiquing the completed painting that Carol Stevens' had begun at a previous session.  Then, using suggested guidelines, we critiqued our work.  We have some exciting things coming up, so be watching for a notice in the near future.

A small group today, only three of us (Lee is behind the camera).  But we had good discussion and lots of room to spread out!!!

We want to wish a warm welcome to Jane, who attended for the first time this week.  Her painting is  featured at the top of this blog post.  As always, there were many interesting comments and discussions during the course of this critique session.  If you have not visited our critique group, you are missing a great opportunity to exchange ideas with a uniqque group of people who are always happy to see new faces...and, new artwork.

Notes:

If you want some of the items that were previously sold at Pat Catan's,
go to their website and write a note to them.  If enough people do this,
they make bring back sectional frames and canvas stretchers as well as
other items you miss.

Also, let me know before you pack up to photograph your work.
Thank you.  Bonnie
