Hi
all you fellow painters out there,
It's
April, the birds are singing, the flowers are blooming and it's still
raining (and snowing), and our first seminar of the year was coming up on the 18th
and 19th with Bill Bayer, but Bill had to cancel due to unsafe driving weather. We are working on rescheduling the seminar for later this year. Bill was a student of Bob Ross and
is a darn good oil painter. We hope you will join us later for his seminar. On May 11th we're having a High Tea social. Check out the details and generous and delicious menu on the blog newsletter.
On June 22nd we will be having a Beginner Class. If you know anyone who is interested in learning to paint bring them to our 'Paint and Pizza' Saturday paint-in.
Prez,
Lydia

2019 Chapter Service Project

This year we would like to ask all members to bring a NICE raffle item. You will receive two Christmas raffle tickets for your item. Painting supplies like palette paper, brushes, and tracing paper are always welcome as are nice wood or metal surfaces. Other items could include potted plants and candy. If you would like to receive it, it will probably make a good raffle item.
April Bill Bayer Seminar --- Canceled due to weather
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.
