Well it has been a while since my last venture into the blog o sphere and now Christmas is done and our trip to Costa Rica is over so it is time to return to reality.  We had a great trip and I did some art study with Andre van Melle a painter from Montreal.  He tried to show me how to work in a looser impressionistic mode.  I'm not sur he succeeded but he certainly taught me some tricks as to how to look at design and composition plus the use of colour.  I'll be buying a few new tubes of paint for sure. We have been home a week now and all I seem to  have accomplished are some rather large pile of snow.  Perhaps a snow sculpture is in order. 
My next project is to help organize our art show for April 30 and May 1 at the Delta Hotel here in Regina.  This is a project being put together by seven Regina area professional artists.  We are calling it ReginA

We could have called ourselves the Regina group of seven but that might be a bit presumptious so just ReginArt. Sorry no visuals this time but will show what I did in CR and keep you updated on the show.
