    Join us for our March Meeting

     

    Our next monthly meeting is Monday March 2, 2026, at 7:00 pm on Zoom. Pattianne Baran will demonstrate “Painting with Pastels”. Pattianne came from New York with a full scholarship to the Cleveland Institute of Art ,graduating with a double major in graphics and industrial design in 1983. After working for several different firms, she started her own agency Buck-Gibson Design Consultants, specializing in corporate identification, signage, and tradeshows. After two decades she went to work for Nestle USA as an art director, doing television and print for the frozen, refrigerated and ice cream divisions. Now retired, she has a studio in the Lakewood Athens Screw Factory and enjoys doing portraits: mostly pets but also people, botanicals, horses, landscapes and anything that catches her eye! She starts work in ink wash base then uses oil-based pencils called Luminance, and also uses pastel, sometimes acrylic paint. Recently she added the use of Pan Pastels to the mix. For the demonstration she will be working in pastels and pencils, doing a newer technique using water to paint with the pastels.

    Our Last Meeting - Thanks Dan!

     

    Due to a family emergency, our scheduled artist Timothy Callaghan had to cancel his presentation for February’s monthly Zoom meeting. We still had some members join Zoom that evening and one member in particular, Dan Driscoll, generously took it upon himself to share his latest creative efforts and the techniques he used – Kudos to  Dan!

    Artist Statement:

    I think of the work I create as an artist as disrupted-derivative-realism. To me that means my art is usually inspired by something recognizable and is influenced by interpretation (mine and the viewers.) I like to use a variety of materials and techniques to create moods, add extra layers of interpretation, and communicate something special, in an effort to find the essence of my subject. I continually experiment with various techniques and materials: oil paint, acrylic, watercolor, fabric, paper, collage, applied to  canvas, hardboard, paper, by printmaking, painting, pasting, repurposing found objects. Exploring how the material and/or the technique influences the subject excites me as much as the subject.

    I have purposefully devoted many hours learning how to express myself artistically. My education as an artist has included working with other artists, attending art classes at Cleveland State University, Cleveland Institute of Art, Community College, local workshops, private tutoring, trial-and-error, experimentation, research, and my very active imagination. I hope you enjoy my art and bring your own story to the work.
