Monthly Meeting - Feb
6:30-9pm BVAA Alternatives / Open Sky Uxbridge Community Gallery 5 South Main Street Uxbridge, MA 01569 Since February can sometimes be snowed out, we use this month for a session which is casual. We all bring in our latest works or images and then offer each other suggestions and advice. You can bring the works in in person or bring JPG images on a thumb drive for us to view on a laptop. You can bring in painting or photography, drawings or sculptures. Whatever you wish! It’ll be fun, relaxed, and conversational. http://bvaa.org/2019/01/07/february-2019-monthly-meeting-critique/ -

Carbon Copies Deadline
10am - 3pm BVAA Alternatives Uxbridge Community Gallery 5 South Main Street Uxbridge, MA 01569 The Blackstone Valley Art Association is sponsoring a delightfully fun art show all about fakes, forgeries, and parodies! Carbon Copies – Imitation is the Sincerest Form of Flattery This show is for all BVAA members to participate in. The idea is to find a famous painting and then duplicate it! You can duplicate it exactly or you can add your own fun twist to it. You can paint a version of a Roger Fenton photo. You can stage a photo which resembles a Vermeer painting. Maybe you paint Mona Lisa as a cat. The sky’s the limit! http://bvaa.org/2019/01/04/bvaa-carbon-copies-art-show/ -

The workshop will involve Carol Frieswick’s book and card set “The Artist’s Muse – Unlock the Door to Your Creativity”. There are bunches of cards with all sorts of challenges and prompts to get you thinking out of the box with your art. We’ll have watercolors, acrylics, pastels, paper, and brushes on hand. If you have a preferred medium feel free to bring along your own paints, pastels, pencils, or camera. We will tackle the creative challenges with whatever we like to work with. Or, heck, if you normally work in one media, try changing over to another to see how it goes!
