PAINTERS IN MODERN TIMES – WHAT’S NEW

29th of July 2009

_{~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~}

A big welcome to all our new members. Our numbers keep growing and growing.
A little reminder to everyone to please only add two images to the group per day. It will make my job a lot easier, thanks!

........ Forums …...... Forums …...... Forums ….....

Our For Critique Forum has been attracting a lot of interest lately when
Martin Kirkwood revealed his (finished?) painting in the forum
““It’s not over. (finally unfinished)

and

Dan Elbourne
asked for some information on

books on framing and mounting

Perhaps you may be able to help him out.

Also don’t forget to load your images into The Galleries
Just like
Lenore Corey
did with this fabulous image

The Heart of St. Therese of Lisieux, 30×40 inches oil on canvas

in the LANDSCAPE/SEASCAPE thread.

Anyone up for a little Pictionary? is still going strong, why not join in the fun!
