It was great to be back today and see all the old familiar faces...okay half of the old familiar faces, since we all wore our masks. We'll continue to post individually so you can experience the artist and the art without a filter. Meanwhile, we have two new members we'd like to introduce you to. First is returning artist Beth. You may remember her from back in 2017-18 or so. She's been keeping busy with some plein air sketching.
And today, she began this view from her front porch. We love her loose, painterly style and are glad her new job frees up her Saturday mornings again.
We're also glad to welcome Christian. As you can see, he's no rank beginner! Here, for instance, are his color wheel and experiments with value ranges.
From there, he launched right into some "extra credit" work with this landscape. See what we mean about prior experience? His gradient sky and color blending around the sun are quite advanced.
And this beginning of a floral is a testament to his graphic sensibilities and love for complementary colors.
Welcome, Beth and Christian! You're in the right place!
