2019 March Newsletter

March is a month of considerable frustration. It is so near spring and yet across a great deal of the country the weather is still so violent and changeable that out of door activities in our yards seems light years away. Spring time is the land awaking, March winds are the morning yawn.

Hi Ladies,

I can't wait for spring, how about you?
With spring comes the Chapter's first seminar with Bill Bayer. He will be doing an oil painting called “Great Oak”. Bill will be supplying the canvas with pattern applies, oil paints and mediums, and color photo with instructions. You still have time to before the March 15th cut off to sign up. He is a fantastic oil painter.

We've had fun classes this year-to-date. The plates with Cheri Ringer turned out beautiful. Tirzah will be teaching a rosemauling the end of March. It is a beautiful piece. In May we will be doing something different. It's high tea. So come join us. Check out the blog for the rest of the year's class schedule and more about the tea.

Come and join us for fun and friends.

Aloha, Lydia

April 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.
