The CSAG General Membership, Thursday, July 24th, 7:00pm at the Senior Center (1514 N Hancock Ave).

7:00 - short business meeting.

7:30 - program - Our presenter this month will be our own CSAG President, June Heimsoth. June is primarily an acrylic painter, but has been experimenting with oils as well. She recently attended a workshop with Ovanes Berberian, held near Jackson Hole, WY. She returned excited and recharged from her experience. A

A few of the comments she made after returning:

· Learned more in one week than in 10 years of painting!

· How to set up, how to start, how to complete a painting

· Create rich, lush flowing paints

· How to make everything come together

· This workshop changed a photo-using, indoor, acrylic painter into a plein air, nature-observing, outdoor painter

· Fog mist, rain, wind, who cares – put that brush to paper on site

June is very excited to share this workshop experience with all of us. If you need to get recharged and renew your enthusiasm for painting, plan to attend.

Hope to see you there.
