New Britain Art League- Open Atelier Painting Group Work

I woke at 9am and pushed myself to get up to go to the Open Atelier Painting at Art League of New Britian. www.alnb.org .

The model's name is Carla. She went to UofH for her bachelor's and Western CT U for her master's in Painting. Her concentration is with wooden landscapes. I wish I got her last name! I would have been able to direct you to her blog or website. Carla said she works as an art teacher and has a show at a Library coming up soon. Good for her!

David Black- Collaborative Painting Project

Lyme Academy College of Fine Arts was holding a Collaborative Painting Workshop with David Black, Saturday, February 20, 2010!

I was a part of this painting. It was challenging to work with people you barely know but reminded me of what I need to work on.

Jerry Weiss's Class-Portrait Painting

When I started working at Lyme Academy College of Fine Arts, I decided to take some portrait painting classes with Jerry Weiss. http://jerrynweiss.com

The class started last week. Although I get fustrated easily, I love it!

I really need it in many ways more than one. I had noticed my mood was getting angry and depressed but after the class my mood went back to normal. I need to get back to art.

This is what I am working on now in the class.
