March 22nd: Art Workshop and Outdoor Paint Out
Chris Whitney has joined SCARF as its Art coordinator and lead for the Lost Coast Artist Art Group. To get things started, Chris is planning an art workshop and outdoor paint out (weather permitting) for March 22nd, from 9:00 am to noon.
Chris invites you to "Bring your brushes, palette, and paints. We’ll set our easels by the cliffs. Artist eye view of the coast. We will have an introductory lesson and demonstration about composition and values. A laying down of some lines of imagination. I’ll start a painting in the demonstration. Then, we will each pick up our own brushes to paint for a couple of hours. Find your spot, lay down some paint. Immerse yourself in a Shelter Cove experience."
There is no charge for this Paint Out, and when you register, you'll will get a list of supplies you will need when you come to the class.
For more information, contact Chris at Whitneychris71/@yahoo.com or call 619-392-8678.
SCARF's plan is to have these kind of workshops every one to two months.
