Art Material Demo



Thanks Kim from Paint Spot - we learned so much about paint, brushes and varnishing! Lots of great door prizes and handouts! Visit Kim at her store on Whyte Ave. or High Street ( just off of 124st ).
Would you like to hang your art at her store??...she will have openings in Feb. and there will be a sign up sheet at the School.
An interesting comment-one of the watercolor students thought she wouldn't get to much out of our gallery talks during coffee break since most of us paint in oils. She was surprised at how much she has learned about composition and how it is effecting her choices for her next painting. During our breaks I am explaining Visual Fundamentals or as the English say a 'Foundation' course..
Want to know what the other students are up to???Be sure to visit http://www.laurawatmough.com/ for the latest student pictures and MORE balck and whites.
Is there anyone you know who might be interested in joining our school? Now is the time to have them register, before the Further Ed Brochure comes out in Dec.

Show and Tell

Who's painting at HTFAS? I have taken pictures of students working on their current masterpieces and invite you to send your 'Fan Club' to www.laurawatmough.com. If you know of anyone interested in starting art the Old Master's way, this is an easy way for them to find out what we are doing. Interested 'scared stiff and stick man drawers' are invited to drop in on a class.
There will be special drop in classes the first two weeks of December! Details to follow.
