Drawing at St. Martins
Hello everybody,
The Soup Kitchen Drawing Group will meet on July 17 with MARIA and August 14 with EDNA.As part of our restructuring, we will be collecting a $25 Annual Fee from each person and drawing sessions will be on a sliding scale of $12 - $15. This will ensure that we stay solvent when attendance dips from time to time. Model fees are currently $80/session but will be increased to $85 soon.
I look forward to your interest and participation to help maintain this group and keep it going. Thank you, Larry and Mim

Tuesday at Creightons - Jun 23
Hi, TACers,
As we settled in for our session with coffee and treats we were sharing books and discussing what we would do when we complete the Goldsmith book. At the moment Painting in the style of a favorite artist, chosen by a different one of us each week, has had the most energy. If you have suggestions please let us know ASAP!
57 Work with Marking Pens
JOANIE started with two pieces that she painted with a kid watercolor palette that had no true colors. The paints were chalky but she added bold marker lines and they turned out to be a little whimsical.
AVELINA used all marker and created a very lively rooster with a great tail and then painted on small pieces of a Chinese paper that had a dry brush effect. They were fast, free and fun!
LEE did a long, narrow paper of a palm tree in watercolor with the palm fronds with marker. It was delicate.
CAROL D. did a rock that looked like a dog. She included razor point pen and gel pen. It really did look like a dog and Shirley named him “Shep”.
SUE did a very energetic water/landscape with washes first and then she added pen work. It looked like the water was gushing.
SHIRLEY did lots of swirls with varied line, shape and color. There were her favorite dots, too.
MARJORIE also did a rooster. She started with watercolor underneath and added pen. That rooster was IN CHARGE!
HEATHER recreated an old watercolor with watercolor crayon to interesting effect. She didn’t have markers so she improvised and she left it dry.
Next week: 26 Change Colors Only Slightly
Hope to see you Tuesday!
