Greetings!
Our next session is on Tuesday, Dec. 4 at 10:00 - 11:00a.m.
Because our regular meeting room is being set up to host the Volunteer Luncheon that day, we will meet upstairs in the New Hampshire Room (the glass-walled conference room).
I will have warm-up exercises for you, I'll suggest techniques to tackle drawing in the library environment and we will use this opportunity to draw throughout the building. Then we'll gather again shortly before 11:00 to share our experiences.
Please enjoy the content below.

What is that music?
 | | Liquid Mind |
Do you notice feeling relaxed and focusedwhen you are at our Drawing Together sessions? I often have a CD playing from a series called Liquid Mind.
I heard this ambient music first time in a shop in Provincetown, MA, and felt a big difference when I left the shop- so much so that I turned around and went back in and bought the CD.I now have several on my computer- one called Sleep is great for insomnia. I don't use that one in our meetings! I notice a wonderful concentrated quiet happening in our drawing sessions and I think this music helps facilitate that.

Robert Genn 'Letters to Artists' is a super resource that you can subscribe to for free. There are many artists participating and posting their work.
Robert Genn was born in Victoria, B.C. Canada in 1936. His formal training included the University of Victoria, the University of British Columbia and the Art Center School in Los Angeles, California.
Recognized as one of Canada's most accomplished painters, his work is well known internationally. While his subjects are universal (he has painted in many countries), he excels in portraying Canada. He is perhaps best known for his work on the West Coast and in the Rocky Mountains.
Robert's technique includes a tradition of strong design with patterns of color and form, with a pervasive sense of personal style. Grand themes are transposed onto small panels and larger canvases in a manner similar to members of the Group of Seven. Most of Robert's current work is in acrylic. He has also done considerable work in oils, watercolor, and silk screen printing.
