Next meeting is October 9th, 2026 6:30 pm
October’s demonstrator will be Laura Kemler. She will be demonstrating a mixed media, vintage style illustration from her sketchbook. This will consist of using bleeding pens, ink, watercolors, gouache and colored pencils. Laura will be bringing multiple stages of the process with her to show how the art comes together. This is a fun technique that she stumbled upon and ran with! All the references used in the demonstration are black and white photos! The demonstration will also show guests how to convert b & w values into color. Come and see this fun and interesting way to paint with nostalgia in mind!
