Peeps

This was my submission for the April 2010 Studio Atelier painting challenge.

April Guild Meeting

This is a sketch of some bones and pipes with stand. Kathie Fellows brought the props for us to sketch from after our official business was finished.  It's nice to just sit and sketch with friends.

Blue Lace Top Hydrangea

Looks like we both love blue Hydrangea. This Blue Lace Top Hydrangea painting was done from a plant that grows in my front yard. I started mine from a plant in front of my grandparents house. The painting is sold but I always have the real thing.

Working larger

Hydrangea
After spending most of my time on minis, I'm working my way up. This is quarter sheet and now I hope to move on to something larger.

Updated CAG web site

I have added links to a map and directions to the OSU extension office on our home page. This should help folks find the meetings.

The monthly inspiration photo is posted on the "Calls to Artists" page with a link back to this blog and instructions for posting.

If anyone has information that should be posted, please e-mail me. I am trying to keep it more current. Thanks to all for the hard work in keeping our guild going and cultivating art opportunities in the community.

Hi, Just sharing a picture I worked on while painting with my sister and sister in law. My sister painted a hawk...and a fine job she did, and my sister in law painted a beach scene that turned out fine. Acrylics are new to them and I was helping them with the technique.
