WAA December 23, 2014

The descriptions of our first two WAA meetings for 2015 follow below.  The social half hour begins at 6:30 pm. The business meeting followed by our speaker begins at 7pm at the New Hanover County Arboretum.

January 8th, 2015.  Owen Wexler will give a talk and power point presentation on the North Carolina Museum of Art in Raleigh, NC.   Owen is on the Board of NCMA and will give an overview of the museum, its collections and beautiful new building.  Owen is on the Wilmington Arts Council, and is a well-known local painter with a background in graphics and an MFA from the Institute of Chicago.

February 12th, 2015.  Christopher Reid will do a demonstration of pastel portraiture from a live model.  Chris, who recently returned to the Wilmington area, also paints in watercolor and oil but chooses pastel as it is under-represented as a medium.  It certainly will be a dynamic and challenging demo!  He will explain his technique and will answer members' questions.

March program TBA.

Happy New Year to you all,
 Ann Lees, Education Chair
