Once again members will be making trading cards for the Dec.15 meeting. Original designed cards should be 2 ¼ by 3 ½ . Do not sign them as they will be displayed to determine the artist and then distributed to others and can be signed at that time.
Pat Scofield introduced the artist of the month. Pedro E Guerrero is a renown, contemporary photographer.
Char Olson presented ideas for a form of abstract art working with shapes and colors. This will be the technique for the November 17th meeting. Bring your regular painting supplies. Also bring some magazines, calendar pictures, or other visuals for ideas. The process involves taking small areas of a picture which can be enlarged to find shapes, and developed with color.
I demonstrated ideas for developing grape/leaf designs enhanced with color and texturing. We used a variety of leaves brought in by Lynda Barganz and myself. Members continued this exercise after lunch.
Sharon Rork will be doing a portrait drawing/painting class in Reedsburg, Jan 5, 2012. Contact her if interested.
