Dong Kingman - Shirley's choice
We took over Creightons and this is what we noticed:
- Complex Simplicity, cartoonish and sophisticated
- Reserved color palette
- He structured his paintings in a Lego block manner
- He cherished his whites and blacks
Next week: Ann Blockley - Joanie's choice
Up next: Avelina
Message from Peg
Attached to a following email is something I recently did with the
Gelli. I continue to explore printing with water colors to help me
become a better designer and to plan the impact of textures and layers.
I thought I would be able to attend the meetings this month but was
waylaid. I am gone most of September (painting trip in Alaska and then
Graeagle) so it looks I will catch up with the group in October. Miss
you all, please pass on my kindest regards
and admiration for what you are doing.
For Lovers of the Right Things
