HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AMERICA!! It is so amazing the framers of the Constitution were able to work together to create a document that is still so viable, today! Enjoy all the celebrations of our precious freedom…may it reign, forever!
Friday nights have been so well attended. I worked with Susan Edwards and Chad McLaren the first night, it was fun! We saw many new faces, visited with old friends, even had several sales! The Fridays continue through August 7th. Thanks to all of you working the extra hours.
Upcoming opportunities for PAPA…Cars and Guitars, Show in a Show, September 19th. Miniature paintings related to the subject. $10 Miniature Fundraising Sale, mid November, Gallery Show Change, July 27th and 28th. For the Gallery Show Change…4 Framed, 4 unframed, 7 miniatures, 8 cards. Remember, the measurements of frames for miniatures should be no larger than 8” x 10”.
June 30th, 7:00, at the Gallery is the next meeting. Diane is reading “The War of Art”, introducing the idea of Resistance, as the force that prevents us from doing our creative work, our motivations for making art and how we overcome the Resistance. Think about the ideas and come ready to share your ideas as we discuss this subject.
Your Challenge Paintings have been outstanding! This month’s Challenge, “Painting Celebrating America’s 250th Birthday”. For July, “Painting of a Sailboat”.
Harrietta Harper will be Featured Artist for July. Thanks, to Tom Descano, for this month’s Show. I so enjoyed getting to know him as we hanged his beautiful show.
Welcome back Roger Hoff, renewing his membership. Hope you were able to meet him, last meeting.
