Artists in the Round

What an interesting day today with my art group! Everyone started their own picture and we had 10 minutes to begin our picture. Then we all rotated round one painting and worked on the next picture with that persons pastels. We kept rotating and finally finished back at our own painting to complete the picture. This picture "Tip toe through the Tulips" is the end result. It was great fun and actually taught us each a lot about each persons paintings and their styles etc.

Kay,

What a cool project! The best part was having to use the person's palette, too. I think I need to get busy and motivate the local pastel group into doing things like this. I may have to bug you later for ideas...

It was a cool project. I was dubious at first but it really created beautiful loose pictures. They were all very different as the artist whose work it was had started the work and then was able to change and rework anything in the picture they didn't like.
