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";

6. Ottawa School of Art Course

Academic Oil Painting; Grisaille 
'Grisaille' is a fundamental step between drawing and painting in traditional academic painting. During this course students creat an achromatic (black & white) oil painting using a plaster cast. Simplifying the subject allows students to focus on the rendering of values along with the methods and materials involved in building a 'fat over lean' oil painting. The course is open to all levels of ability. The same instructions will be given to all students but the instructor will recommend extra challenges to the more advanced students on a one-on-one basis. Traditional oil or water soluble oil is acceptable.

3. Art Workshops

David Kearn is hosting a set of art workshops at the Rothwell United Church. He would be delighted to welcome some Arteasters.

In 6 workshops, we cover key painting subjects and walk with some incredible Canadian painters. These workshops appeal to a wide range of skill levels: from relative beginners to practiced artists wanting to pursue a new style. Together we will dispel myths and develop sound practices, creativity and expression!
