August Meeting

At our meeting in August Mavis introduced unyru paper to those who were not familiar with it and Sue demonstrated adding fibers to a floral painting to add texture.
.
Members worked on fiber work or their own projects.  It is always great to see what others are doing and learn from them, as the artwork and techniques are so diverse.

At our next meeting (Sept. 20) those who would like to bring ideas for texturing on watercolor paper are welcomed to do so. Sue will do a demo using different texturing materials. When the paintings are dry we will find areas that can be cropped or simply divide your sheet into 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 cards for you to create paintings to be used for our trading cards that we exchange in December. These will not be cards you labor over just  simple little paintings that you create with the help of texture already created in the preliminary  wash. This is an great way to share "original" art with each other.
