Paint-out on Thursday, Nov 30, Guilford Green

This will be the last scheduled CTSA painting morning this year. We started the year with the Guilford Green and will finish it there as well. The forecast is for around 46 degrees and cloudy; I think our first paint-out was about the same - dress warmly!

Thank you to the people who responded to Patty's invitation - we'll see you in January.

I'll post a schedule for next year in the early spring. I wish you a productive winter and I'll see you outdoors again in the spring.

Paint indoors with us?

There are still a couple of places available to paint at the Guilford Community Center for ten weeks beginning on January 9.

Patty McGuire needs to hear from you asap if you are interested. Here is her announcement again in case you missed it. She has paid the Community Center but needs a final number of painters to calculate how much each of us will pay:

Please let me know this week if you are interested in painting at the Guilford Community Center this 2018 winter.

I have reserved The Quonnipaug Room (upstairs) for Tues. afternoons from 12:30 -3:00 pm - Jan. 9 to March 13 with March 20 being a makeup day if we have a snow day.

The rental for the room will be $875.00 for 10 weeks.  (That is $125.00 less then last year.)  We will divide the $875 by the number who sign up.  I would appreciate it if you would let me know this week as I need to pay the Community Center in order to keep the room.  Thanks, Patty


Her email is pgmcguireATcomcastDOTnet.

The room at the Community Center is bright and well equipped with chairs, long tables, and sinks.

Here are a couple of recent paintings from our fall sessions on the Branford Green.

Call to Paint Thurs Nov 16 Branford

This week, our paint-out is at the trains at Pleasant Point Road in Branford. Directions as usual on our blog at https://ctsa-guilford.blogspot.com/, right-hand column.

For various reasons I haven't been out painting yet this month. Sally tells me that a couple of Thursdays ago, painters at the dog park area at Young's Pond in Pine Orchard, Branford, included Sally, Candace, and Betsey. Here's one inspiring painting from that beautiful morning. Thanks, Sally!

CTSA Winter Indoor Painting Opportunity

Hello fellow painters.

For several years now, a sub-group of CTSA (actually, some of the original founders of the group) have painted indoors during the late fall, the winter, and the early spring.

There are some spaces available for our winter session, beginning in January. Here is Patty McGuire's announcement:

Please let me know this week if you are interested in painting at the Guilford Community Center this 2018 winter.

I have reserved The Quonnipaug Room (upstairs) for Tues. afternoons from 12:30 -3:00 pm - Jan. 9 to March 13 with March 20 being a makeup day if we have a snow day.

Hope to see some of you there along with the old crowd (well, not all so very old actually!).

Call to Paint Thurs Nov 9 Branford Green

Sorry, I see that the schedule of destinations had two different locations for last week. I hope you weren't confused and were able to paint anyway.

This coming Thursday, our destination is the Branford Green. The weather looks OK for the time of year.
