Art Without Painting Out

Greetings to All,

With another massive weather system already engulfing New England, it looks like we're not going out again this week. The forecast has a 90% chance of rain on Thursday morning and plenty of wind also.

So I hope you all have a painting or two going in the studio. I'll be trying to paint from a model again at Brush & Palette. I guess it's a good week to work in the studio, with the Madison show receiving this coming Saturday from 9:30 to Noon. Although if you've not already finished your entry or framing it yourself, it might be getting a little late... The opening for the Madison show will be on Thursday, May 8, from 5-7 PM at the Scranton Library.

By the way, last week, I heard from Lisa B -- Larry's wife. She said she is fully recovered from her surgery and feeling fine. Although now she faces the prospect of follow-on treatments, she sounds very upbeat and is looking forward to getting her studio setup completed, so she can get back to making art. I hope to connect with her in person if both of us make it to the opening of the first show of the season at Essex  (this Friday night 6-8 PM). --  Our own Kay is co-chair with Lisa for that show, which already had many exciting pieces of art submitted when I was there on Saturday, with another day of receiving yet to go.

Think Spring!
