Work On Your Art While Discussing Art
This month, in lieu of a demo artist, bring in an art project that you can work on while we have a question-and-answer session about various art topics, such as pricing your art. We can have a show-and-tell segment, too. Show us what you’re working on, and if you want advice on its completion, we can help you out! We can also supply much admiration, appreciation, and encouragement!
