1. Members' Announcements
Arteast member Danielle Beaulieu will be exhibiting in the Da Artisti Gallery from July 31st to October 13th. Two new series will be on display.
The first series of paintings entitled "From the Farm to the Kitchen" represents fruits and vegetables that end up in our kitchen. During our daily activities, we may not take a lot of time to observe the fruits and vegetables that we pick up at the grocer or market. Paintings force us to admire their structure, shapes and colours.
The second series entitled "Oh So Sweet" contains bright coloured candies with crystal containers. Unlike fruits and vegetables, as children, we probably all admired the bright colours of candy. As adults, seeing candies probably brings back cheerful memories.
The vernissage is on Saturday August 3rd from 9am to 5pm at 2565 Old Montreal Rd, Cumberland ON K4C 1A1.
In addition, Marie Léger and Wendy Canci, also a members, will be exhibiting in the gallery during the same period.

Summer Drawing and Painting Program: on-line lessons - individual reviews
Summer brings so many creative opportunities, although perhaps fewer art course options. Whether you're at the cottage, traveling or simply chilling in town – help is at hand!
Join my new on-line summer drawing and painting program: 6 weekly on-line lessons and personal email reviews. Let's enjoy summer and create art together, each week a different theme that you can pick-up and use, or equally go your own way, sending back your explorations - for my review. Plein-air and studio, drawing, watercolour, acrylic and oil - I'll be commenting on it all. Check it out: http://www.breakabrush.com/on-line-courses/summer-drawing-and-painting-program-plein-air-and-studio/
My range of on-line courses helps tap into the precious and fleeting beauty that is Summer: each includes comprehensive web-lessons that contain video demonstrations, examples and assignments - with individual reviews. Follow a weekly email schedule or work at your own pace! Drawing and painting with perspective and colour, portraits in acrylic, and oil or watercolour. I'm confident there's something to invigorate your creative summer!
Let's create some summer art together!
David Kearn
