Saturday 12 ladies played hooky from pre-Easter duties 

 spending six hours at Catalyst, through Art  Supply Warehouse.

With everything supplied, can you imagine? Just walk in.

 

The goal was to experiment & play with a myriad of techniques 

& supplies while making 50 faces on different substrates.

by Ann & Terri

Quick timed drawings with different rules produced ...

We made tiny fingerprint faces to experiment with expressions.

ASW gave each a 3.5" x 5" journal with 56 pages for faces!

ASW supplied 3 canvases & a 14X14" wood canvas.

Gesso was an option for the wood, but most worked directly

on the wood with acrylics, and some graphite.

I love the individuality within the class ...

and the willingness to venture outside their comfort zone.

 Some added acrylic & collage, some decided to stop.

Some will continue to work at home. A fun day.

Maybe you can join us sometime?

 

A smile for Sunday ...
