                            What's Next!!!!

                                                                      August with Maggie

material list and prep w. Maggie

​Prior to class
1. Basecoat pot: If you have not done this before, the basics are: be sure the pot is
CLEAN (even new pots should be wiped down to remove any dust) and they must be
DRY before applying paint. The rim of the pot is painted Slate Grey. The base is painted
Grey Sky. You will probably need 2 – 3 coats. No need to paint inside the pot but some
people like to paint the inside of the top rim that will probably show above the dirt!
2. Trace and transfer pattern.
Bring all standard painting supplies and your favorite brushes

From our  
​Ocala Decorative Artists 
President
​
​Barbara Barsel  ...........

Dear Friends,
    Well, when was the last time you painted on a "frying pan"?  Like never!  Thanks to Pat we had a lot of fun painting the snow lady.  I have come to the conclusion that if something doesn't move, we paint it.  Any object is fair game for us!
    We enjoyed having Margaret back with us.  We voted to approve the "Fish in a Bowl" colored pencil class by Janelle in November.  Lunch will be included in the price of $40 for members, $50 for non-members.  
    Our August workshop will be taught by Maggie - a terra cotta pot with a flower design.

We painted one a few years ago and I put it on my porch but before I had a chance to put a plant in it, it developed a bird's nest and I watched the three eggs develop into tiny baby birds.  So, my painted flower pot had a dual purpose.  The year before we couldn't use the front door for two months because it had a bird's nest in it.

    Thinking ahead, we are making plans for our Christmas Party.  Date set is Dec. 17 at our usual meeting site.  I printed up menus from the Pig and Cattle which is the restaurant we chose.  They will be available at the next meeting.
    I am taking a much needed two-week vacation from my job.  My family and I are staying in Siesta Key - nice white sand and warm gulf water for swimming.
    Stay well and be safe. 

Kindest regards,  Barbara
