Two New September Events

Painting Demonstration & Raffle
for the Illiana Artists Meeting
(This demonstration is open to the public)
Monday, September 14, 2009, 7:15 pm (after the meeting)
Westminster Presbyterian Church
8955 Columbia Avenue, Munster, IN 46321
(located across the street from Community Hospital in Room 305, South-side of the church).

I will be instructing the participants of this event on my process of working and painting outdoors (or indoors) while working from a photograph during the meeting. I will address the unique challenges of outdoor painting and show how to overcome them by using a simple, straightforward approach. Topics covered include: picking a composition, massing the values of light, and how to make the most of a limited color palette.

Raffle Prize
Also, I will be donating the demonstration piece for a raffle prize during the event. Talk about an inexpensive way to get a vanderVinne!
