Potluck Picnic and
Drawing "En Plein Air"
with Kris Mitchell & Friends
To mark the end of another great DC201 chapter year, let's just enjoy each other's company, share some food, and learn why Kris Mitchell, Richard Helmick, and Valerie Kerrisk love doing plein air drawing in colored pencil...and how each approaches it. Please bring a favorite food item to share for the potluck picnic...an entree, a salad or vegetable dish, a side dish, or a dessert. As Kris tells me she's done with potlucks in her classes, let's just see what happens! (Be sure to take your serving dishes and utensils home with you when you leave.) You are welcome to bring a guest/spouse/significant other.
Here's the plan for the day:
9:10 a.m.
9:30 a.m.
10:00 a.m.
10:30 a.m.
11:00 a.m.
12:00 noon
2:00 p.m.
Come at this time if you can help set up the room
Arrive to socialize, find a seat, and preview the art we've brought
Announcements/business meeting begins
Art sharing/discussion; check out the ATC and chapter displays for the CPSA convention in California
Kris Mitchell (along with Richard and Valerie) will talk about what to take, how to carry it, how to set up, how to decide what to paint, and how to work en plein air. Then you can try working outside (or stay inside if you prefer), or just watch and learn as Kris, Richard, and Valerie work en plein air
Potluck, then plein air/draw-in/observation continues until 2:00
Cleanup begins, then enjoy the rest of your day and we'll see you again in September!
What to bring:
- Your food contribution to the potluck
- Your own beverage
- In-progress artwork (and other art you may want to share) plus art you can work on and supplies if you like (or just plan to watch and learn from Kris, Richard, and Valerie!)
- A cushion if you want a softer seat
