Underwater-Themed Painting Experience

​Paint Night:  November 10, 2018

Elizabeth and Jill showcase their whale shark art!

 Whale Shark Painting Class

All of us ocean enthusiasts had a great time painting whale sharks with artist Catherine Farquhar at her One Sketchy Art Studio last Saturday night!

Catherine has donated her framed canvas painting for raffle, so that the proceeds can go to the ongoing ocean conservation efforts of the Project Aware organization.  Thank-you Catherine!

We will be drawing the winner on Tuesday, November 13 at our monthly club meeting.  Good luck, everyone!

Artist Catherine Farquhar

​
"If you've got the party, we've got the time...and the studio and gallery and the paint and brushes and the one-on-one professional art instruction for every party guest. Catherine has formal training in drawing and painting. Her work appears in local shows and in private collections. She approaches teaching art as a form of creative mentoring, encouraging the imagination and confidence of the beginner while challenging the experienced artist with the insights of a collaborator."

It started with a dive trip reunion being planned, spearheaded by Tracey, one of our divers that lives the farthest away from the rest of us, followed by Dawn suggesting a paint night.  From there, Annie found Judy, a local artist who was willing to take us all on a paint-night adventure, and Andrea secured the venue as her friend owns The Patrick House Art Gallery in Aurora.

We are all proud of our creations!

We had such a wonderful time, and make no mistake, not a one of us is a professional artist!  And it t didn't matter.  Our subject matter on September 22, 2018, was a colourful jellyfish. 

Now we have a million ideas for underwater art that we would like to try our hands at!  Whale shark?  Yes!  Fill out our super, duper short survery below if you are interested in us organizing another paint night featuring an underwater theme (where we long to be).
