Tuesday, we will pick our recipient for the first Valentine!
For the month of February, we are giving each other paintings.
Each of us will create a little painting for one other person at the table.
Here are some ground rules, but it's pretty flexible:
- You have to show up to participate. We talked about other arrangements, like mailing them, or setting up exchanges for absent times, but I am nixing that. The artist and the receiver both have to be at Creighton's to get the opportunity to participate.
- Each piece must by 4" x 6". I am thinking it would be an interesting group of work to see at the end.
- We will show each person's work, just like usual.
- If the artist cannot attend the next week, they can either forfeit on the day of assignment, or hold the piece until the next time they do come.
- If the receiver cannot attend the next week, the artist will still show the piece. She can then either give the painting to me to hold, or hold onto it herself. If any "he's" participate, please do not feel pronoun-excluded.
- Please put your name and the receiver's name on the back of the painting. I've got a plan!
That's it. Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeez - Have Fun with this.
Color Mixing
ArtTudor has a blog that has some interesting articles. This one is about Color Relativity and it seems to be a topic that has been coming up recently. Although written for oil paints, it works for watercolors, too.
