<<First Name>>, welcome to the April 22 issue of my fine arts newsletter, a fun and informative resource for both art collectors and artists!
Did you know that I teach Watercolor Workshops and Design for Painters Seminars throughout Arkansas and the surrounding states? If your group is interested in a demo or workshop, or needs a juror for an exhibit, please contact me to discuss it. You can learn more about my workshops on the Workshops page of my website, and see my upcoming art events on the Events page.
Demos, Workshops, and Exhibits
I had the honor to judge the Traditional Art Guild (TAG) April exhibit at the Garland County Library in Hot Springs, Arkansas, on April 1. It's a great exhibit; stop by if you can and enjoy the excellent artwork. My one-man exhibit at the Guachoya Cultural Art Center in Lake Village, Arkansas, is continuing through this Wednesday. I raffled off a coffee-table book of my paintings at the reception there on April 4, and it was won by Carol Burchfield. And I participated in Art on the Courtyard, a free art show and sale sponsored by Brush Strokes, in Hot Springs Village, Arkansas on Saturday April 20. I also raffled off a book at this event, and it was won by Janet Enders. Thanks to all those who stopped by, and congratulations to Carol and Janet!
If you've been enjoying my recent artist tips on the Principles of Design, please consider attending my upcoming 1-day seminar Design for Painters. It will be held in Hot Springs Village, Arkansas on Tuesday, April 30. For more information, take a look at my Workshops page and Events page, or contact me.
I've recently scheduled a new 1-day Watercolor Workshop on May 14 sponsored by the Perry County Art League. For more information, see my Events page.

Newly Posted Watercolors
Since my last newsletter I posted 4 new watercolors on www.weeklywatercolor.com or www.jimoberst.com. There's quite a bit of variety: a floral, a seascape, a cityscape (which has already been sold), and something very new for me - an abstract. Let me know if you'd be interested in seeing more abstract paintings. Click the image or its title for more info.

If you see one of my paintings you'd like in a different size, or one that has already been sold, I'll be happy to consider repainting it for you.
