Slideshow - check it out at AtelierKadunc

I have put a new slideshow onto AtelierKadunc. Right now, I have two artworks from each of us on it. I don't have full-sized photos of all of our artwork on my system and so could not upload to Picasa. Currently, all of the photos are under my own Picasa albums. In future, I will put them into an AtelierKadunc album.

Gail is back

It was good to have Gail back in class last Tuesday and this Thursday. Her bird painting is evolving nicely and should be ready for our NVRH show.

Speaking of shows, my two paintings made it safely to Jekyll Island. Thanks, Ed, for all your expert help. It hurt my pocket book to ship, ouch, but will be fun to see them hanging in the spring show when we get there in March. Hope the great weather they have been enjoying lasts through our stay.

Paint, paint paint!

Wet Panel or Canvas Carrier

Hey all -

I'm posting this link which might be of interest to those of us who are looking for inexpensive ways to carry wet panels and/or canvas. It's not beautiful, but it's inexpensive and functional. At least it seems so. I'm going to build one this weekend. I'll bring it to class next week.

Supplies

Hello all of my Painting Pals,

Les has been kind enough to pull together some amazing offers through Blick for canvases, and other items you might need. Let him know if it's paint, or paper, or even a color wheel. The biggest benefit is that we can avoid shipping fees, so write and tell him what you want. The intention is to consolidate our orders...so let's just do it. And, Ed, think about material lists for your new students. If Les needs some help with this, I'm willing to lend a brush : )

When is Margaret getting home??

I am still so jealous that Margaret is sunning herself in Belize. I'm hoping in another week we will see some really wonderful work, but if she decided to just chill that's fine too. I'm very excited about my week in Maine at the end of the summer. However, I am also trying to chill about it. It's not my mindset to push summer any faster than it needs to be.

Last weekend I spent too much time dealing with my old NYC connections. This was not a bad thing, but it had nothing to do with art. The good thing is that it will give me a bit of the resources to move on during our vacation. I suspect it will take me at least five months to figure out what I need to make this class happen. And, perhaps, Ed will do a plein air class long before I lose my mind : )

Write fellow painters. Let's talk about what's happening on or off the canvas!

Wet Canvas

Hi to all my painting buddies...

Check out www.wetcanvas.com when you have some time. The site is filled with so much stuff that would be helpful to anyone of us, or all, that are painting no matter whether it's oil, watercolor, pastels or pencils. It's totally worth signing up and digging in to what's going on there.

See you on Tuesday!

Cathy
