Breakfast Critque Club
Written by Christine Tidwell   
Saturday, 15 August 2009 14:41

Next Critique Club is Tuesday, September 1st with Bobbie Dorr from 8:30 a.m. - 11:30 a.m. We've been having a great time at the critique club meeting and learning a lot. In July Don Getz was our guest artist. He was extremely entertaining and constructive at the same time.....not easy to do. Bobbie Dorr has been teaching classes for many years, has won many awards and is wonderful at critiquing paintings. I've had first hand experience! So, be sure to mark your calendars for September 1st at Panera Bread in Medina and I hope to see you there. I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

Thanks, Christine Tidwell
