A collaborative effort

Today in the Art Center some regulars were absent, probably due to the Christmas rush. 
Kathleen Richter finished a painting that had been started by Peni Baker, who broke her shoulder and couldn't finish it.  And an excellent job she did, capturing the essence of a fellow artist's relative quite nicely.  Kathleen has learned to master acrylics in a very short time.  What will she do next?  Stay tuned.

I did a quick little acrylic demo for the folks, and it's a good start, but needs 3-4 more hours work to be usable.  This will be one of my contributions to the free raffle at the Club's 75th Aniversary Reception on January 17th.

On Tuesday Roy Woodall demonstrated how to make artistically good use of the projector left behind when the Council vacated the building years ago.  The Bulb still worked and Roy's demo was very informative and helpful.  He suggested we get a cart to wheel it around for easy use.  Just so happens I saw one at a thrift store yesterday for $5 so now we have a wonderful tool to use as transferring art onto canvas.  Kudo's to Roy from the Club.

Several other people had some good paintings going, which I didn't get to photograph. 

This will probably be my last post on this blog till after Christmas, so wishing you all a great Christmas, and all you artists out there I wish you a New Years full of colorful new painitngs!
