I am in Arkansas!

I have arrived in Russellville, Arkansas and I'm about half unpacked... well, the disabilities have something to do with that. But I've been doing a lot more than I was ever capable of in Kansas, the weather here is much easier on my arthritis and I can't believe the amount of mobility and body energy that's given me since the move. I'm still disabled but I had no idea just how bad the weather thing was because I was incapacitated when I got there.

Any improvement felt like a big deal. Getting… Continue

Welcome!

Welcome to our group! Invite your friends! We'd love to have them!! This group is about challenging our comfort zone in painting so there are monthly challenges posted. There's also off topic discussion, and more! We all know collectors especially of our own works so please invite your collectors and ask them to invite their friends!

On a side note, spammers will not be tolerated and will be permanently banned. So if you have *any* issues with that and the moderators or myself has not banned the culprit, please email us asap! We will be more than happy to take care of the matter. :)

Happy "Arting"!

~Shari

September 2009 Challenge - Time and Time Pieces
This month's theme is actually more on the abstract side. Aside from the usual clocks, big ben, and other time keeping devices, the actual challenge is the interpretation of Time and Time Pieces as a whole. More of a surreal topic. So with that sa...

In realism making sure you have a good drawing with the right perspective is one of the most important points to making your painting good. Bill Pogue, one of my art teachers said "Your painting is only as good as the subject matter". If you are n...

Merci beaucoup Patty ! I will work in the site after September because I am pretty busy right now. But I will love to hear from you about my new style as an experiment with support and color. Bye for now !

Robert A. Sloan replied to Robert A. Sloan's discussion 'Moving to Arkansas, AFK till Mid-June Probably'
Oh wow! That does sound a lot easier. Of course I got the benefit of the climate change, so I'm not complaining. No more Seasons for me. They're something to paint from photo references and memory, not to live with. I think I'll stick to Moist Sub...
