Salon Showcase 2010-W50

Well, here we are on the brink of Christmas and the end of 2010.  Half of us ended up the day with works-in-progress — so maybe we were very lazy today, or maybe we've just had good luck with productivity in prior weeks.  Potayto/Potahto. 

In anticipation of a very lazy New Year's Day, the Salon elected to take off a couple weeks.  Our next post will be on (Elvis's birthday) January 8, 2011.  In the meantime, the Salon member-artists want to wish you all a peaceful holiday season, however you celebrate it.  Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year!

Salon Showcase 2010-W49

Julia changes running groups and so returns as a regular... and perhaps began a series today.  Everyone's painting was inspired by the season.  Maybe that is typical of December-born art?  Hopefully all our friends and family are enjoying the holidays so far.  We are!  We will be back next week for the last Salon of 2010.   Enjoy!

Salon Showcase 2010-W48

This week, the Salon fell victim to our first snow of the season... but since we got to December with no snow, we can't complain.  With nothing new to show, below is the work that inspired the current enhanced cat series.  We were undertaking a class exercise to paint in the style of artist Ken Schadt, and this was David's effort to "be Ken".  A new cat —and more— to come next week.  Meanwhile, stay warm, and enjoy!
