Art Discussion Meeting, Thursday, Sept 3, 2015, 9am, O'Connors

Thursday, Sept 3, 2015,  9AM, O'Connors 

Suggested Table Topic: Achieving "Glow" in a painting (or drawing). How do you indicate a very bright light (such as fire, a super-bright highlight, or any kind of "flash" or glowing light) in a painting? Do you have any tips that you can share with us? What is your experience?  Let's discuss! 

...and as usual bring some of your current paintings and/or news about you...We’re interested! 

P.S. also check our no-stress drawing club that meets after the Thursday meeting HERE (we will try to meet at Medley Tea, though they are re-opening that day so it depends on seating availability).

* Though you can order food during the meeting, if you want to be assured of getting your order in... come in advance of the meeting. (Some like to eat "leisurely" at 8am)

**(specific topic participation is always "optional")

(O'Connor's Restaurant 7850 Southwest Capitol Highway Portland, OR 97219)

Art Discussion Meeting, Thursday, August 27, 9am, O'Connors

Thursday, August 27, 2015,  9AM, O'Connors 

Suggested Table Topic: What painting (or drawing) did you paint (or draw) that you thought was good when you did it, only to look at it later and realize that it was not near as good as you thought? What changed your mind? (This is a question about your progress. If you have the painting/drawing in question, bring it in. If you don't have it, just describe it). As always, also bring in your recent work, if you can.  Let's discuss! 

...and as usual bring some of your current paintings and/or news about you...We’re interested! 

P.S. also check our no-stress drawing club that meets after the Thursday meeting HERE (we will meet at Village Coffee or Starbucks until Medley Tea re-opens)

* Though you can order food during the meeting, if you want to be assured of getting your order in... come in advance of the meeting. (Some like to eat "leisurely" at 8am)
