Dear Painters:
There are so many exciting things coming up.
Next month we have Tirzah teaching the "Hungarian Cockerel" on a tin pie plate. It is the second in a set. Be sure to get signed up if you have not already done so.
In June Glenna Neilson will be teaching a "Uncle Sam on a Bee" for the 4th of July.
Our July Summer Social will be held in Tirzah Probasco’s back yard. It should be great fun to renew old friendships.
We are taking sign ups for the September Seminar. Bill Bayer will be teaching an oil painting. It promises to be a very excising Seminar. He provides everything you will need except for the brushes. He has brushes you can purchase for approximately $20.00 per set. He also has a few loaner sets. All you have to do is come and paint, no prep required. Please get your $100.00 deposit in as soon as you can. This Seminar will fill up fast.
I was the lucky winner of the April Raffle. Thanks Eileen Barnard, I love it.
See you at the next pain-in.

I painted this rooster on a 9 1/2" pie pan. The center is based in Vellum. The outer edge of the pie pan is based in Willow. The very top edge (flat part) is based in Blackberry. After the center is dry, put on the pattern. Base the rooster in Blackberry. When that is dry, apply the pattern for his wings and other details.

September Bill Bayer Seminar
Bill “Ridley” Bayer began painting as a hobby in 1988. The following year he studied with Bob Ross and became a certified instructor of Bob’s wet on wet technique. He has since studied with many other well know artists developing his own style of painting. Bill has published five instructional books and three DVD's titled "Down Roads... Less Traveled" showcasing his talents. Bill uses his middle name “Ridley” as his signature. Ridley was also his grandfather’s name and Bill signs his paintings in “Paps” honor. Bill and his wife Fran live in St. Louis Mo and many of Bill’s compositions are inspired by the beautiful countryside surrounding their home. Bill paints in oils, acrylic and watercolor and travels across the country teaching the techniques he has learned.

Nancy opened the meeting at 9:55 and thanked everyone for coming to the Paint-in. She remind all of us to check the signup sheet for the May Hungarian Cockerel class being taught by Tirzah.
Nancy then proceed with the class.
Glenna Nielsen brought several potential projects for her class in June. We took a break to see what she had brought. Everyone liked the "Uncle Sam on a Bee" the best. Tirzah will check into getting the wood for the class and will let us know the cost.
Nancy was the lucky winner of the noon raffle drawing of a cute metal bird planter with live plant and garden shears and gloves. Very nice.
The Paint-in ended at 2:30 pm.
