Hello! It's Caturday...okay, you had to be there and to see Ken's t-shirt.
Anyway, we finally broke our snowless record. With 1.1" of snow yesterday, our string of freakishly mild winter weather is over. So we can all relax and get back to normal....like painting!
We had a fun class today, full of free advice and great paintings. Unfortunately, some of our newbies didn't stop to get still photos of their masterpieces. So you'll just have to view the video to see the plaids and color wheels. And doesn't it make a difference when you start with different triads?
As for the rest of us, we start with some incredibly rich abstracts and move on to a relaxing Sunday morning curled up with the cat. Beyond that, we're fascinated with people (kids, friends and ourselves in different ages and places). Not to mention that we're definitely ready for spring! Did you notice the tulips and wreath of roses? Oh, and don't worry—the swimmer emerging from the surf doesn't have jaundice or some strange skin disease. It's just masking fluid, a fluid rubber cement-like substance designed to reserve white paper. It'll come off next week...watch and see!
Put a note on your calendar to join us next week. We're having a guest speaker....the ever-popular Johannah Silva from Winsor & Newton's Artist Outreach Program. She was a huge hit last year when she discussed cochineal beetles, cow urine and so much more. Needless to say, we're really eager to see her again. You too...see you next week!
