Sunday, August 9, 2015. August 1, 2015. This was our last class of the season and now it's officially summer break! But it's an action-packed summer break, so be sure to read through and see what's happening. You are invited to an open sketch session at an architectural wonder next week. And there is a gentle reminder to mark your calendar lest you miss our upcoming show. Read on! Reflected in the lake. More reflections in water! Madeleine's weeping willow is very different in style and purpose, but it i...

Saturday, July 26, 2014. July 28, 2014. And, just like that, school is out for summer! Yes, we'll be starting our summer vacation beginning next week. But we'll be back after labor day—and that's right around the corner. If you can't wait until then, keep reading. You're invited to join our summer Sketch Club. Susan's painting also features palms, water and sky, but the mood is much more industrious as Filipino carpenters make lumber to rebuild after the typhoon. Ken is beginning two new paintings in his...

It's Showtime: June 2015
http://saturdayshowtime.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 27, 2015. June 27, 2015. You can tell by the calendar and the weather, not to mention our watercolors. One more sign of the times is the attendance. Lots of people on vacations and out enjoying the beautiful day. Too bad, too. Those of us who were present got a double treat—Pat's birthday buffet and a chance to witness "the perfect paper towel." It's true! Lydia nailed the paper towel color-matching exercise in no time flat. And it wasn't just. One more sweeping mountain vista for your con...

It's Showtime: May 2014
http://saturdayshowtime.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 31, 2014. May 31, 2014. Here's what we did. Sketch. Ken did sweeping landscapes in quick sketch style. His goal was to capture the play of light on the trees. We think he's succeeded! See if you don't agree. Here, for instance is a beautifully composed view through the sun-dappled trees. Again, notice the sunlight on the trees? Here's a wide view near a lake. And a closer look at the weeping willow in the distance. Followed by some beautifully-rendered and shaded studies of details. And wha...

It's Showtime: November 2014
http://saturdayshowtime.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 22, 2014. November 22, 2014. Meanwhile, there's plenty to see. We begin with a wonderful seasonal painting. Entitled Freedom From Want. Vivian's painting features her cat gazing at the Thanksgiving bounty. We are all salivating just looking at the turkey and the pie—and don't you love the composition and the way the cat is seated like a guest (and dressed in a festive bow to boot)? Here Victoria does a banana very wet. But rest assured, this is a very accurate portrait of her banana.

Saturday, June 21, 2014. June 21, 2014. Summer is officially here today.the season we've dreamed of and yearned for all through the cold, dark winter. And while the pessimists among us might note that it's all downhill from here. the days are growing shorter from here on in. the rest of us are determined to savor every moment. And, as you'll see below, we do that with paint. Elaine's also into the greens, golds and blues of summer, but she adds people to the summer scene. Susan's added people too. Sh...
