| The Prez Sez ... |
Hello, fellow artists, Welcome to a 2007 that arrived so quickly it was probably a surprise to most of us… It also represents a new beginning in which we might resolve to give up bad habits, lose some weight, support charities, or make many other changes. This year, I want to do more art. I have regular days to go to my studio, but find that I allow dinky little things to get in the way, and wind up taking a lot less art time than I want to. This year, I resolve to tell myself and others that I have a class every Tuesday and Thursday. (Tuesday I do have an outside class.) Thursday, my class will be with myself. I'll go to my studio, and if I don't have a plan in mind, I'll just paint some paper or throw some random shapes. I firmly resolve to adhere to the adage that discipline is more important than talent. Happy Art-Filled New Year! Linda C. |
| Crosby Art Show and Talent Day |
| Crosby Church in Crosby is having a community artshow and talent day and I would like to take time to invite all LSAG artists to participate. It is a fun day Sat. Feb, 24th ( 9AM- 5PM) 2007. There will be music, theatre,crafts ( in separate room from fine art), fine art and literature. It will be set in Tom Sawyer era. All artwork must be family friendly.
This is a showcase not a competition. Artists may place a price and info on each piece and buyer will be directed to them. This is a day to celebrate Talent, not geared to sell artwork, but does not exclude the selling of pieces if done by the artist. It is an opportunity for artist to use their talents. Crosby church is located at 5725 HWY 90 ( just east of Crosby on Highway). Please call Connie Houser for more details (281) 324-9470 or e-mail Connie at lifehouse3@verizon.net
