June Paint Out!
Wabash Valley Watercolor Society
Paint Out at Tippecanoe Battlefield
June 21, 8 a.m. until ?
Join the Wabash Valley Watercolor Society at the Tippecanoe Battlefield to paint the beautiful scenery around the monument, park and Burnett's Creek. There are many lovely sites for painting including the small nature museum, the picturesque chapel, the monument, woods and Burnett's Creek. We will meet in the parking lot at 8 a.m. However, if you want to come later, follow the stairs beside the small brick Nature Museum down to the creek and you will find some of us. You can either bring a lunch or we can go to T.C.'s in Battle Ground. Suggested supplies are mosquito spray, suntan lotion, and a hat. Hope to see you there!

Plein Air Travel Journal Classes!
It's not too late to sign up for the summer travel journal classes that begin June 9th, next Monday morning! Download the registration form from my blog: www.jerieartz-artzart.blogspot.com. It's never too early or too late to try something new! Here is my 2 1/2 year old grandson painting plein air with me last week - although he more enjoyed painting on, his feet than on the paper!

Hello artists,
Our guest artist this month is artist, Sandy Daniel. She was our guest last August to give us her perspective, opinions and an unbiased critique ~ there was such a positive response, we wanted to bring her back. So bring a painting you would like to share and hear Sandy's insight. (Remember our annual juried show is October 31, 2014, and she may be able to give some insight for a more successful painting).
See you Tuesday, 7:00pm at TAF, LaDonna Vohar, President 765-237-1252
**Remember that an objective critique is an important part of an artist's career. We all have blind spots to at least some aspects of our work, and we can sometimes overcome those blind spots with genuine objective criticism. Sometimes we ask our friends to tell us what they think of our work, but that isn't always the best idea. Some of us are way to hard on ourselves and keep overworking a painting when it was just fine hours or days before. The critique allows us, as an artist, to look at our work in an objective way. Hopefully, we are then able to "see" our work with fresh insight, and sometimes gives us a new direction in which to go.
