What a fantastic day at Hassayumpa! Thank you to
all who participated, the Nature Conservancy was very happy with
the quality of the paintings and it is a wonderful show.
Thank you to Az Art Supply for the
gift certificates. The scenes were not easy to paint but
everyone came out with lovely pieces and we also had several
brand new members attend. We have been asked to do this
again next year so if you missed it in 09 don't miss it in 2010.
Thank You to Judith Rickter for
having all
of us to her home and serving an amazing BBQ,
potatoes, margarita pie! Here is the view from
her home in Wickenburg.

JUNE 27, AND
JUNE 28
All
Arizona Plein Air
Painter members (you must register ahead of time) will be invited to paint for 2 days at
the arboretum in Flagstaff. Here's the plan: You can paint one
or both days, immediately frame and hang whatever you complete,
and leave your work - possibly as many as 3 paintings,
(depending on size - one large one equals 2 smaller ones and an
additional one would be a back up piece) until
July 31st. (A convenient date for pickup as that is the
start date for the Hart Prairie Nature Conservancy Paint-out).
The show will be in the main entrance lobby, sales are handled
through the gift shop. We will announce in the next
group email, the actual date you need to sign up. Sign ups
must be strongly confident that you will attend and so another
artist can take your spot. Any questions,
email
Linda Dellandre at
dellandw@yahoo.com for more info.
