Meeting February 2020
NOMINATING COMMITTEE
Per our Constitution a three person nominating committee is to be elected at the February meeting.
If you would like to volunteer for the committee, please let President Allen Weekley or one of our other officers know.
Elections for the positions of President and Secretary will be conducted in the April Meeting, so members please attend the February and April meetings if at all possible, to ensure that we have a quorum present for the nominating committee election and the vote on the new League officers.
ART DEMO
Our art demonstration for the February meeting will be by Patsy Seward, who will demonstrate painting an acrylic landscape of Caddo Lake.
ART CHALLENGE
Members and visitors are welcome to bring an art piece for the challenge.
In November we learned in a demonstration that drawing and value are two of the most common problems in art. This month, we will tackle drawing and see what we could learn to improve our drawings skills.
The challenge is . . .
1. Draw something you do on the weekends that makes you happy.
2. Use a single color. It can be black, white, or any color of the spectrum, but drawn with only a single color.
