Happy New Art Year!

Something about the fluffy, brown donkeys with their white-rimmed, dark eyes and ears in knee-deep snow draws me to them instantly. Momma’s head nestles over Baby’s back defying their wild nature.  Against the gray, steel-blue light shining through the bare-branched backdrop of a cold, Utah morning outside Monument Valley, these sweet creatures want me to paint them...I can just feel it! Inspiration at last!!!
 
Which colors could I combine to make their coats deep, chocolate brown?  I guess the young one is more a latte brown whereas momma is mocha.  And how would I paint that glow in the steel blue sky?  Which canvas and what size?  Hmmmm,,,,which brushes? Should I start with the background and move to the donkeys or the other way around? Or do I need a class to get me started?
 
How about you?  Have you always wanted to paint or draw simply for the pleasure of it?  What about write a poem or a short story?  Encouragement, along with classes and instructors, await you at Art Accelerated.  We are beginning a New Year at the Gallery at 1906 Third Street right in downtown Tillamook, where we just recently added a new, spacious classroom space behind the Gallery. Newly painted and renovated with a beautiful floor, space is waiting for you to get started on this one creative life you possess.  Come join us!
 
The next Writers’ Meet Up will be Wednesday evening, February 6th from 6-8 PM in the new classroom space and is free of charge!

Christine leads an Artists’ Workshop every Tuesday from 1:30-3:30 PM in the new classroom and she will be there to encourage you in your painting, drawing and/or printmaking.  $5 per session or $20 for 5 sessions...flexible dates(bring your own materials if you have them)
