Hello Peoples!

I haven’t had much luck with this thing going out with the regular newsletter, but I’m going to keep trying.  If I have to manually push it each and every Monday, I will!  Also, as suspected once the password changes, it changes for all past videos as well.  This upcoming four-day weekend, I have a LOT of web stuff to update so I’ll set an area up for the class vids as well.  That will make it easier for subscribers to download them at will also, so look forward to that.

Drawing Class Tuesday nights from 6-7 C : This week will center on cones and pyramids.  Triangles think circles are pointless and rectangles are too square!  From ice cream cones to diamonds to cat’s ears, triangles are where it’s at!  If you want to art along, all you need is a marking instrument (magic marker, pencil, sharp stick, bloody finger…) and a drawing surface (paper, cardboard, sidewalk, lover’s back…).  If you just want to watch, well then you don’t need no stinking tools!

Painting Class Wednesday nights from 6-7 C : Live painting demo this week is Popcorn.  During last week’s “make it pop” demo, I liked where the popcorn illustration was going.  I want to flesh it out a bit and see if it’s ready for prime time.  If you want to art along, I will be using paper with acrylic gesso, acrylic paints, and probably a touch of watercolor pencils/crayons.  Again, if you just want to watch, you might just bring popcorn.

Friday Night at the Oasis is still on hold until I get some cheap and permanent heat. It’s like a meat locker in there when the sun goes down.

The classes are held on my studio ustream channel: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/oasisgalleryok and this week the password is flamingturkey all one word, all lower case.

See you there,

Blade
