Covid 19 Paint-In - #2 May 7th 2020, 1pm- 3pm

HopPamela Levac has organized another zoom meeting from 1-3 pm on May 7th for anyone who would like to paint along from home. This is a time to hang out and paint together (no instruction or guidance offered). This time please bring a subject of your own choosing. You could work from a a bunch of flowers, a still life, photographs, it's up to you. We can paint from 1-2:30, and then from 2:30-3 we can share our paintings by holding them up to the computer camera, and talk about what colours we chose, or why we chose that scene.

Most of the time, we’ll just be painting, but it’s fun to have other people painting with us! If we can aim our cameras at our painting set-up, we can occasionally check in on what other people are doing.
If you’d like to join us, just click on the Zoom link at 1 pm on May 7th :

Hope to see you there!

 Pamela Levac has organized a Zoom meeting from 1-3 pm on April 30 for anyone who would like to paint along with her from home. This is a time to hang out and paint together (no instruction or guidance offered). My suggestion for this first time would be to paint a view from our window, balcony or yard. We can paint from 1-2:30, and then from 2:30-3 we can share our paintings by holding them up to the computer camera, and talk about what colours we chose, or why we chose that scene.

Most of the time, we’ll just be painting, but it’s fun to have other people painting with us! If we can aim our cameras at our painting set-up, we can occasionally check in on what other people are doing.

If you’d like to join me for this first time, just click on the Zoom link at 1 pm on April 30:  https://us02web.zoom.us/j/81328405488

Hope to see you there!

           Critique   2:00 - 4:00 pm
​  We have invited Marilyn Smith, a multi-media artist, well experienced in watercolour, and a past juror for the OWS, to share her experience and guide us in critically exploring our own artwork. She has trained under well-known artists, has a B.A. in Fine Arts, and has taught art for many years.
   This event is free and all members are welcome and are asked to bring 1-2 artworks, framed or unframed, to be explored in more depth for strengths and vulnerabilities, to learn how to more effectively examine one's own work.
This event will follow our OWS Executive meeting, which will start at 12:30 pm. All members are welcome to attend this meeting. We are extending a special invitation to the Award winners from the 81st exhibition to receive their awards directly following the meeting around 2:00 pm. We invite you to bring the paintings associated with those awards to show the group.
Light refreshments will be available.
