Vineyard" by Charlene Dayton (Watercolor), "Dance of the
Dragonfly" by Cheryl Brickman (Graphic Art), "Anything,
Everything, Everywhere" by Rozenia Cunningham (Mixed
Media) and "Bridal Veil" by Kathy Komaromy (Photography).
Show judge, Edward E. Parker, master artist and sculptor,
said, "Very good show. Hard choices. Several
could have been Best of Show. Selected "Trees"
because of texture, perspective and size." See
all show
winners on the
Art Show page.
A great BIG THANK YOU to all the members who helped
with the Spring Fine Art Show in so many ways…. ‘it takes
a club to make a successful show’. Everyone stepped
up to help. It could not have happened any other
way! Thank you, thank you!

We thank our
May demonstrator, JoAnn DePolo for her
presentation, "Creating Abstract Paintings",
enjoyed by the 28 members and guests in attendance at the
East Shore UM Church. JoAnn said, "All art takes
place in the head and heart first and that could take
hours, but painting it can take a minute and a half!"
She then asked if we were ready to see what happens!
Painting wet in wet, JoAnn showed us three ways to add
different acrylic paints to the canvas while creating
texture and movement.
