December 13, 2009
PAINTING BUDDIES WANTED Art classes finished? Friends have headed south? No one to paint with during the winter doldrums? DCAL members invite you to share space at the Bertschinger Center in Egg Harbor for painting time, shared critique, and camaraderie one morning a week. The schedule will begin as follows: Mondays, January 4th, January 11th, February 1st, and February 8th, from 11:30 AM – 3:00 PM. Each participant will pay a nominal fee to help fund the space. If you are interested, e-mail Sherry Mutchler at sherry_mutchler@yahoo. com or call 743-2927. Looking forward to painting with you this winter! (Please note that there is an “underscore” between sherry and mutchler in the e-mail address.)
CRITIQUES IN SISTER BAY Tom Seagard and Marcia Nickols were talking about finding a place where artists could bring their work and have constructive conversations about the work and the artists’ goals, but not to do their work there. This is meant to be a give-and-take for all artists so they can grow within the work they are doing. The winter is a good time for this because many have closed their galleries and things have quieted down. We found that the Sister Bay fire station has a place available on Tuesdays. We thought that 10:00 AM would be a good time, not too late, and give time for the snow plows. The dates can be negotiable, but to start we took December 22nd at 10:00 AM. Future times and dates will be discussed when we meet; this is just a startup. If you are interested, please give Marcia a call at 854-9369. This is meant for all artists; if you know anyone who would be interested, please let them know.
SISTER BAY LIBRARY The Sister Bay Library is offering DCAL artists the opportunity to exhibit for 2 – 3 month periods. Marcia Nickols’ work is currently on display. If you would like to participate, contact Marcia and she will put you in touch with the proper person at the library.
PLEIN AIR PAINTING At this time, there is no one in charge of the Plein Air Group; however, who’s out painting in this weather, anyway?! If you could help coordinate the sessions, please contact JoAnne Rosenfeld at 559-7530 or luvbostons@gmail.com. In addition to the weekly sessions, the plan this year is for the Plein Air Group to participate in the League’s various outdoor and indoor venues, including the Gallery, to bolster interest and customers. Visitors love to watch artists work!
SEND NEWSLETTER INFO TO BARB Please send all newsletter information to Barb Kenyon at kenyon@newwis.com. The next newsletter will be mailed during the first part of January. It will include your 2010 DCAL renewal form, so please respond promptly.
FEBRUARY POTLUCK AND CRITIQUE There will be no December or January general meeting. League members will meet Monday, February 22nd, at the Gibraltar Fire Department meeting room, 3496 County F, Fish Creek. Please bring a dish to share, plates, and utensils. Also, bring a piece (or two) of artwork in progress for an informal critique. The potluck meeting begins at 6:00 PM.
