Abstract Concepts!  (Julie and Brandy are going to lead you through this session!  Thanks to you both!!)
Say “YES”if you are interested in trying something that will stretch your creativity/ imagination …  
  • Come to the 2nd Tuesday session with the paints/brushes, pens, and pencils that you like to use! 
  • Julie will walk you through the process and has already made up some starter pages for you to work on by adding marks, with paint, ink, pens, pencil…..bring a variety of mark making tools!
  • This is an abstract concept, that forces you to look what might be/ what you can see in the start of what’s on the paper
  • And as always, you are welcome to join in or work on whatever artwork you want to work on!
Tips:  
Roadtrip: Sawtooth Botanical Gardens
They have an amazing crop of daffodils this year!  
Do stop in at Gardens when you are in the Ketchum area.  
Wander through and spin the prayer wheel.  Paint a flower.  It is worth the stop.  
🌻Also, SBG sponsors free “Wildflower Walks” every Thursday from May 7-July 9 (no walk on May 14). 9:00 – 2:00 or so
These are low impact walks in the area.  
You will learn a lot, and the group is very knowledgeable and welcoming to new flower and plant lovers.

CSI Art Classes:  
I encourage you to check out CSI classes for the Fall.  Stop in at the Taylor building or go to the CSI website. 
  • Free full semester classes!!! to those over 60ish…not sure of the exact age.
  • Audit to take away the pressure of doing every project…although it is hard not to do it all
  • Enjoy doing something new!  Calligraphy, Photography, Printmaking, Book-making, Painting, Figure Drawing, Art History, ….there are a lot of great classes to choose from!
 
😳I had hoped to be at the May 2nd Tuesday session, but we are having our floors refinished and have to be out of our house for that week.
So, We will be off painting and fishing elsewhere during the mess!!  (Need the rest after moving everything out of the way!)
 
❤️Thanks to the artists who have stepped in for me this year while I have been in class!  Betsy, Michelle, Julie, and Brandy! 
And finally:  Now it is time for our usual summer break.  
I hope to see all of you in September, so watch for our starter session newsletter in September!
Have a great painting summer!
