President’s Message

Greetings Everyone!
After a long hot summer it will be great getting back together for our regular meeting on September 20th at 1:30 at Crossroads Art Center. Despite the weather, I hope you had a great summer.

I am sorry to have missed the July workshop. There was a good attendance enjoyed by many creative minds.

Congratulations to all our members for an outstanding show at 606 Gallery in Ashland. Thank you Bill, for making it possible.

Would everyone who created a collage for the Post Card show, please bring it to the meeting to share.
Creative Blessings, Becky

September Program

Jane Mohr will be doing a demonstration on altered photos with collage that she learned from classes at Museum Studio School. You can participate or just observe. If you'd like to try it, bring some photos that won't be missed like doubles, people or places you don't remember, or those 10 shots of someone's garden. They can be color, black and white, any size. Photos printed on your computer at home won't work. If you don't have any, she will have some to play with. Also, if you have any chalk pastels, watercolor, acrylic paints and brushes bring a few. Also, any favorite stamps and solvent inks, bring those as well.

Have fun and turn old boring photos into pieces of art. Enlarge them and keep collaging.

Kudos & Etc.
