Spring 2010. WATERCOLOR: Find Your Signature Style. Here’s a chance to explore your own personal style in watercolor, if you have a bit of experience but want to hone your skills, or just get away to paint independently. Your supportive instructor will help you to set your own artistic goals, and suggest ways to get you there. Includes some how-to technical demos as needed, but mostly lots of individual painting time. A big bonus of this class is the sharing, friendly critique, and camaraderie of others on the creative path. A great way to expand your skills in your own individual way. Instructor will be ”hands off” or ”hands on” — YOU set the pace. Supply list upon registration. Skill Level: Some experience in watercolor

Less is more: Art in the recession

How are YOU changing because of the recession? Artsbeat from the New York Times asked for feedback from artists. I wrote

Q. How has the economy affected me as an artist?

A. I’ve moved farther from “timely” and more into “timeless” — which is where I’m ultimately headed anyway.

“TImely” was more stuff, more entries, more shows, more events, more classes, more ju-ju.

“Timeless” is more painting, more looking, more quiet, more recycling, and more faith that art, timeless, will survive it all.
