This will be the second of our new summertime informal workshop meetings. June’s meeting was a lot of fun, and we learned a lot about printing our own small images. We hope you will enjoy this one as much!
Our General Meeting for July Will Focus on Portraiture
Tuesday, July 15, 2025
Strawbridge United Methodist Church
5029 Kingwood Dr., Kingwood, TX 77345
Note: The meeting will be in Room 207 upstairs this month, as the Great Hall is being renovated. When you reach the office door, sign in, take the elevator up, and turn left.
6:00 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. Meet and Greet
6:30 p.m. Meeting begins
Finish by 8:30 p.m.
Linney Hamilton will be conducting this workshop, showing us how she creates a portrait. She will be working from a photograph, so please bring a photograph of your own to work from. It should be a head-and-shoulders picture with plenty of shadows on the face to give it interest (so no professional portraits).
Also, bring whatever materials you want to work with – pencils, charcoal, pastels watercolor, etc. You will need a surface to work on, and if you are using water media, please bring a dropcloth.
Look Book – Second Call!
We are always on the lookout for new places to display our members’ beautiful art. In connection with that search, we want to put together a “Look Book”, in which the proprietors of display areas can see a sample of the kind of art that they can expect to see. We are asking anyone who might want to offer their artwork for display to the public is asked to submit one page about themselves.
For your page, please send us an email with your full name, email, website, phone, etc. Also, we would like a photo of you, a brief Artist Bio, and 3 – 6 good quality images of some of your work. Send your email to: sheilabucchinoart@yahoo.com
Sheila will arrange your information in a format that looks similar to the one below, and she will keep the pages in our Look Book.
