Friday, February 20, we watched a John Lovett video which inspired Dave Kaplan and Deanna Jaugstetter to challenge each other to a 15-minute painting. They then swapped their final pieces.

Mailbox Challenge - a little later AND Vacation Paintings

Hello Friday Fanatics,
Since we won't be meeting at AAC this coming Friday, May 16, we will delay our review of mailbox designs until Friday, May 23. Please submit an idea for a new mailbox for AAC on Friday, May 23. We had one excellent design from Nancy Rounsaville so the competition is ON.
One consideration may be to highlight the street number for AAC -- 2979 -- to aid people looking for our address.

Dave Kaplan is on vacation in Hilton Head. Following the wonderful demo at the last AAC meeting, Dave did a palette knife painting of a marsh. Please send me a vacation painting -- or a workshop painting -- to post here.

Happy painting in May. Send your photos to me at jane@janespringfield.com
