St-Laurent Library, in conjunction with Arteast, is proud to present an exhibition of paintings by Perth artist Judy Hollinger. This solo show is titled Back and Forth and runs from September 29 to January 5, 2018.

In her art practice, Judy is drawn to the exploration of opposites - light versus dark, warm versus cool, complementary versus similar colours, defined lines versus lost edges. She works between order and chaos, abstraction and realism. Her current collection, Back and Forth, reflects this. Close ups of flowers and plants allow her to use realism in the foreground with elements of abstraction in the background. Judy works primarily in acrylics.

This is a unique opportunity for the public to enjoy, encourage and support artists in their local community as well as the St-Laurent Library.

Location: St-Laurent branch of the Ottawa Public Library, 515 Côté Street , Ottawa K1K 0Z8

Acting on this belief, Kerstin offers courses, workshops and paint parties, working with both adults and children.

Colour and Composition Workshop; Holiday Mix Exhibition; BazArt; Arteast Open Studio Time

1. Colour and Composition Workshop with Susan Ashbrook

Date: October 29, 2016
Time: 10:30 – 4:30pm
Cost: $65 for members and $80 for non-members
Location: Orleans Superstore, 2nd floor, 4270 Innes Rd, Ottawa

Susan Ashbrook loves sharing her knowledge with those who want to learn. During this workshop she will impart her knowledge on colour and composition. Of all the visual elements, colour has the greatest impact on our emotional response. Its presence not only is limited to its own visual strength; it also is an overriding component in every shape, line and texture. On the other hand, composition pulls the eye of the viewer across the painting, taking in individual elements to finally focus on the main feature or focus of the painting.

Atelier sur la couleur et la composition avec Susan Ashbrook

Heure:  10h30 à 16h30

Coût:  65$ pour membres et 80$ pour non-membre

Endroit:  Orleans Superstore, 2e étage, 4270 chemin Innes, Ottawa

Susan Ashbrook aime partager ses connaissances avec ceux qui veulent apprendre. Au cours de cet atelier, elle conférera ses connaissances sur la couleur et la composition. De tous les éléments visuels, la couleur a le plus grand impact sur notre réponse émotionnelle. Sa présence est non seulement limitée à sa propre force visuelle; il est également un élément primordial dans chaque forme , la ligne et la texture. D'un autre côté , la composition attire l'œil de l'observateur à travers la toile, en passant par des éléments individuels pour enfin mettre l'accent sur la mise au point caractéristique principale ou de la peinture.

Échéance: vendredi le 14 octobre, 2016

Nous devons avoir 12 participants pour cet événement ou celui-ci sera annulé.

6. Communiqué

Arteast's hard-copy, quarterly newsletter—Communiqué—is popular with our members, but did you know that it is also available on our Web site at http://arteastottawa.com/newsletter.php? A notification when a new issue is released is communicated via the weekly Arteast Digest. Posting of the Web version may be viewed in full dazzling colour, at least two weeks before the print version (black and white) is delivered by Canada Post. With rising postal costs, some members have requested that they be removed from the mailing list for the printed copy. Other advantages of going with the online Communiqué are:

- reduces printing and envelope costs;

- makes Arteast more "green";

- no more hunting for misplaced issues (Arteast's Web site has the current and all back issues).

Printed copies will be available at our monthly Grow With Art meetings and the Promenade Arteast gallery at the Shenkman Arts Centre. If you prefer to read the newsletter online, please e-mail us at editor@arteastottawa.com to have your name removed from the newsletter mailing list.

La copie imprimée du trimestriel d’Arteast – Communiqué – est populaire auprès de ses membres, mais saviez-vous qu’il est aussi disponible sur le site Web http://arteastottawa.com/newsletter.php ? Lors de sa publication, une notice paraît dans l’hebdomadaire Arteast Digest. Sur le Web il peut être lu et vu en couleurs deux semaines avant la version imprimée ( noir et blanc) postée par Poste Canada. Compte tenu du coût postal croissant plusieurs membres ont enlevé leur nom pour l’envoi postal - vers le Web. Il y a d’ailleurs d’autres avantages du Communiqué en ligne tels que :

- réduire les coûts de l’imprimé et de l’enveloppe;

- Arteast plus ‘vert’;

- ne plus être à la recherche du numéro manquant (le Web d’Arteast conserve le numéro courant et les anciens numéros).

Des copies imprimées seront disponibles à la réunion mensuelle L’Art en herbe et à la galerie Promenade Arteast au Centre Shenkman. Si vous préférez lire le Communiqué en ligne, s.v.p. contactez : editor@arteastottawa.com afin d’enlever votre nom de la liste d’envoi.

2. Make Arteast work for you my working for Arteast

Arteast is run solely by volunteers, members like you who contribute a little of their time to ensure that the organization can provide its many programs and run its exhibition venues. Without the help of its members in volunteer roles, Arteast would not be the dynamic organization it is. Don't forget that, by volunteering, you are not simply working for other members, you are working for yourself and making Arteast work for you. Make Arteast work for you by becoming a volunteer.

NEED FOR VOLUNTEER - VICE PRESIDENT

Arteast needs a member to step forward to take on the role of Vice President in January 2016. You can make an important contribution to your organization and help shape Arteast's future by joining the Executive in this capacity.  

The key purpose of the VP is to support the President and assist that person with their duties. It is not essential to have professional experience as an executive or a manager but you should have organizational skills, good judgement and common sense....attributes that we all develop from life's experiences. You have what it takes and your organization needs you for VP.

If you are interested in helping in these capacities, please contact me at president@arteastottawa.com or 613-830-1829.

Lynne Alsford
President

6. Communiqué

Arteast's hard-copy, quarterly newsletter—Communiqué—is popular with our members, but did you know that it is also available on our Web site at http://arteastottawa.com/newsletter.php? A notification when a new issue is released is communicated via the weekly Arteast Digest. Posting of the Web version may be viewed in full dazzling colour, at least two weeks before the print version (black and white) is delivered by Canada Post. With rising postal costs, some members have requested that they be removed from the mailing list for the printed copy. Other advantages of going with the online Communiqué are:

- reduces printing and envelope costs;

- makes Arteast more "green";

- no more hunting for misplaced issues (Arteast's Web site has the current and all back issues).

Printed copies will be available at our monthly Grow With Art meetings and the Promenade Arteast gallery at the Shenkman Arts Centre. If you prefer to read the newsletter online, please e-mail us at editor@arteastottawa.com to have your name removed from the newsletter mailing list.

La copie imprimée du trimestriel d’Arteast – Communiqué – est populaire auprès de ses membres, mais saviez-vous qu’il est aussi disponible sur le site Web http://arteastottawa.com/newsletter.php ? Lors de sa publication, une notice paraît dans l’hebdomadaire Arteast Digest. Sur le Web il peut être lu et vu en couleurs deux semaines avant la version imprimée ( noir et blanc) postée par Poste Canada. Compte tenu du coût postal croissant plusieurs membres ont enlevé leur nom pour l’envoi postal - vers le Web. Il y a d’ailleurs d’autres avantages du Communiqué en ligne tels que :

- réduire les coûts de l’imprimé et de l’enveloppe;

- Arteast plus ‘vert’;

- ne plus être à la recherche du numéro manquant (le Web d’Arteast conserve le numéro courant et les anciens numéros).

Des copies imprimées seront disponibles à la réunion mensuelle L’Art en herbe et à la galerie Promenade Arteast au Centre Shenkman. Si vous préférez lire le Communiqué en ligne, s.v.p. contactez : editor@arteastottawa.com afin d’enlever votre nom de la liste d’envoi
