LAG Paint Out, June 15, 2019
 |
| Wyoming Territorial Prison 9 members of the Laramie Art Guild met to sketch or paint at the Territorial Park. LAG paid for everyone's admission. This site was chosen because it could offer landscape, architectural, and historic painting opportunities. July 14, 11am-3pm, will be the LAG's annual potluck picnic at Laprele Park. The guild will provide fried or baked chicken. Members and guests are requested to bring a food item of their choice. Anyone interested in painting at the park, please bring art supplies. |

Patterned surfaces; the easy approach
The top pattern was made with crumpled newsprint
to resemble a floral design.
The bottom texture was achieved with 3
values of acrylic paint splattered with a
toothbrush to achieve the
resemblance to graniteware.
First acrylic landscapes...ever!
Using only 4 colors + white,
the class followed Jeanie LeCompte's demonstration
(see below)
on how to simplify and layer the acrylics;
allowing ample drying time between layers.
Blue, burnt umber, burnt sienna, yellow ochre +
white can make quite a colorful scene!
Acrylic Workshop Proved to be FUN

Laramie Art Guild January Meeting
Our challenge was to view the model for 2 minutes, afterwhich we were asked to
list several descriptive traitsof the model. These were listed on the board. The model
returned for another 2 minutes and more descriptions were added.
Then, based on the attendees descriptions, the instructor started to draw a
preliminary sketch of the model. It is a good exerecise to discover what you overlook
when observing the figure.
