Thursday, September 28, Change of Location!
Betsey noticed that the Branford library has its book sale this weekend and there will be tents and scarce parking on the Branford Green tomorrow. So we will change locations for painting tomorrow and meet at Meigs Point, Hammonassett State Park. Next week we will be at the Branford Green.
The weather forecast for tomorrow has improved, I'm happy to say.

Call to Paint, Thurs Sept 28, Branford Green
Directions on the blog, in the right-hand column, as usual.
Here's the only photo I could find in my files of the Branford Green (I painted the cafe a few years ago).
But you'll find streetscapes, trees, people, stores, churches, benches, etc. Plenty to paint. Weather might be iffy, I'm afraid.
Hope to see you there.
Last week on Thursday at the Dudley Farm, four of us painted on a warm, overcast and breezy day: Ed, Jay, Betsey and Veronica. We were entertained by a family of very small, noisy, and amusing children having a loud giggly conversation with the sheep. The farm was looking beautiful with a big bed of colorful zinnias and dahlias, as well as corn and squash.

Call to Paint, Thursday 21st, Dudley
Dudley Farm, Guilford, Thursday 21st September, http://www.dudleyfarm.com/farm_garden.htm
Directions as usual at https://ctsa-guilford.blogspot.com/, in the right-hand column. Fortunately, the weather should be very nice on Thursday after the possibility of a tropical storm in our area tomorrow, Tuesday. Barns, house (one of my favorite Guilford house museums), sheep, chickens in and around their coop, and oxen. There are also community gardens tucked into the woods with sunflowers just past their peak. See you there.
-Veronica
PS, I didn't get to Trolley Road last week, discouraged by that grey day, but Betsey reports that there were two painters (and several fishermen!).

Call to Paint Thurs Sept 14, Trolley Road; and Important Information
Hi, everyone,
First, an invitation: A group of painters from CTSA has been painting indoors from fall to spring each year, using rented space, usually on Tuesday mornings. There are a few spaces available this fall and we welcome new people. It is simply a time (9 am to 12.30 pm) and a place (Dudley Farm's Munger Barn) to gather and pursue our own painting projects, any medium. We are starting the ten-week session this Tuesday, September 12, but you can start next week or later if you wish. The room rental cost for the full session will be divided depending on the number signing up, but will be not more than $70 per person for the full session. If you'd like to join us, please email Rosemary Baggish as soon as possible at rosemaryDOTbaggishAThhchealthDOTorg (you know what to do with this to turn it back into a normal email address, so that internet crawlers can't detect it).
Second, a request: The Hyland House Museum https://hylandhouse.org/ is planning a fundraiser Jazz & Art by the Sea on October 29 to fund a new roof. There will be a silent auction featuring local and out-of-town artists. I know many of you have exhibited at the Hyland House and support their work. If you would like to donate a painting, the organizers would be very happy and appreciative. You may contact me, veronicaDOTsoellATgmailDOTcom.
Call to paint: Thursday September 14, at Trolley Road in Guilford. Directions on our blog site at https://ctsa-guilford.blogspot.com/ in the right hand column. The schedule for the rest of the season until the end of November is in the same column.
Last week at the Clinton Town Beach, we had a glorious morning, a little windy at first but settling down later. Ed, Joan McP, Betsey, Jay, Veronica, and Gloria painted the sea or the river - this beautiful location offers many options.
See you at Trolley Road this week.

Call to Paint at Clinton Town Beach, Thurs Sept 7
Directions as usual at https://ctsa-guilford.blogspot.com/. Weather for Thursday looks good.
Last week at the Florence Griswold Museum was a delightful experience. The sun shone, a little breeze ruffled the leaves, and the sky clouded over only as we were leaving after having lunch together on the lawn under a tree. Pam, Robin, Tom, Linda, Marlu, Veronica, Nancy, and Gloria enjoyed the day. Here are some paintings, finished or not.
See you on Thursday at the beach.
