MEETINGS 2020 - 2021
We meet on the third Wednesday of the month, September through May. Please check the home page for notice of any cancellation.
Temporarily, monthly meetings will be held online, via Zoom. Given the current safety considerations due to Covid-19, research is well underway for a meeting space that will be safe for everyone.
Since we are meeting virtually, we are working on ways to bring the Art of the Month program back to our members. Stay tuned for news.
Noted fine artist Alan James will provide a demo for viewing. Alan is an award-winning watercolor artist and teacher; his art appears in collections worldwide. Alan has studied with some of the great watercolor masters such as Alvaro Castagnet, Joseph Zbukvic, and Herman Pekel. His art captures the very soul of his subjects with passion, boldness and elegance. His paintings are imbued with a mood, a mystery that engages and lures the viewer into the magic.
Our guest artist Agnes Wnuk will demonstrate the art of urban sketching using pen and watercolor wash technique. She will also talk about materials used in the field. Have your sketchbook and pens handy to sketch along. Agnes teaches urban sketching techniques in Southbury and Cheshire. Her watercolors have been shown in solo and group shows.
