I think I drank enough coffee at our fundraiser to keep me going until my summer is over. We didn't do as well as last year but we still netted about $210. It was a slow memorial weekend overall. I am still excited about the summer months though. I wait all year for sunshine. I just had to wait a little longer this year. I'm sure it won't be long before we are all complaining about the heat.
If you weren't here last month you missed out on a beautiful learning experience in color theory taught by Sue Eakin. It's wonderful when you can use a beautiful painting as a learning tool. Learning to mix colors takes time and practice. I hope we all will venture to grow as artists and enjoy every little thing that we learn. If I can learn a new cyber language on facebook, you can learn to mix colors. :)
Next month is a UFO month. We will also watch a painting DVD. Join in to fellowship with other artists. Its nice to be with people who share your pasion for art.
See you soon, your President
