Welcome to a new year and new art.
Our December meeting was a paint around with everyone getting a chance to work on a watercolor, an acrylic, and an oil painting. We also had some holiday snacks and our mini-show is back.
Our January demonstrator will be Christina Ramos for:
The GOLDEN "A to Z" of Acrylics
This lecture packs in a ton of valuable information about acrylics, guiding listeners through the basics while opening up new possibilities. Gain information about mineral and modern pigments and how this relates to clean color mixing, glazing and the creation of fabulous new colors. Learn the unique properties of Fluids, Heavy Body, Open and High Flow Acrylics. Discover Interference and Iridescent paints for unusual effects. Get a comprehensive overview on the many Gels & Mediums and how they can change texture, saturation and intensity of color, used for sculptural effects and more. The lecture includes a review of grounds that create truly, contemporary surfaces for painting, drawing, pastel, digital printing and mixed media. Each lecture includes an array of examples of these materials put to use. Attendees leave the lecture enthusiastic to explore the extensive potential of acrylic painting! The lecture also includes a brief introduction to our non-acrylic products, Williamsburg Handmade Oil Colors and QoR Watercolor.
Above are two of our December participants for our City Windows display at 123 Artsakh Ave. Jasmine on the left with 2 of her works, and Vivianne on the right with one of her works. This display is holiday themed and will be changed on January 6th. We are changing how we organize this display as of January.
SEE the INFORMATION BELOW.
***GAA has also been offered a week to have a formal exhibition in the first or second week of March, so start painting a few new pieces and the GAA board will meet and decide on the details. It will be at 127 Artsakh Ave very close to our City Windows display. Time to get excited about new work!
