Eastside is an art group of 8 artists, who meet once a month & play.

This month out artist instructor was Josie Hamilton.

Josie took us out of our regular comfort zones & suggested cacti!

We could work on any substrate, and were encouraged to sketch.

We are a fun group who enjoy each other and all kinds of art.

We met in Erin Houghton's beautiful, cool studio.

We were seven this meeting, missing LibbyWilliamson.

I apologize, I didn't get shots of everyone's work, 

I guess I was distracted by cacti!

So that's Eastside for another month. A great group.
