April 20, 2019 Class - 9:00 am

Donna Richards will be teaching our cute and fun summer flowers project. The piece is 9 x 12", but the pattern can be any size.  Those painting the design need to bring their own surface.  Prep the surface with white gesso and then apply a coat of Titanium white.  The pattern includes instructions for drawing a very light line around where the patter will fit into a 6 1/2 inch x 9 inch area.  Place pattern on.  Basing and finishing will be done in class.   Paints will be supplied.

Our May project is this wonderful box that holds cell phones so that you can charge 
them.  Jan Pecharich will be teaching this project.Everyone should have their wood already and patterns can be picked up at the April meeting.

Friday lunch.  Registration will be $75.00.
