(Actually we're testing whether this works over the next few days ... so, hopefully, voila! Sign up, check back, email me with feedback: jillbanks1@aol.com.) You can still check the blog (please do!) at jillbanks.blogspot.com to see the latest and older posts, but here's another way to keep up with me in painting land.
I went to the "Coloring and Cocktails" event at McLean Project of the Arts (MPA) tonight. I'll be participating in MPA's Artfest, a juried outdoor arts festival in McLean Central Park, McLean, VA on Sunday, October 4 and tonight's event was to get enthusiasm brewing. About 80 people were signed up to sip cocktails and color/create ... and bring out their inner child. No pictures. Sorry.
I colored outside the lines.
Other participating artists there tonight were Elaine Elinsky (buddy and fellow studiomate), Val Mahon, and Julie Lansaw. People were definitely enjoying themselves.
Great idea! Check out more about the MPA Artfest at www.mpaart.org.
It's almost over...
This is the last week to view my "On the Bright Side" solo show at the Great Falls Library, 9830 Georgetown Pike, Great Falls, VA (comes down August 31) and works in the "Still Life Poetry" show at ArtSpace Herndon, 750 Center Street, Herndon, VA (comes down August 30). See my web site for more details.
"Rooster and Geraniums" shown above is one of the 24 paintings and drawings currently on view at my "On the Bright Side" exhibit ... but not for long. 14"h x 11"w, oil on Senso linen, copyright Jill Banks 2009.
