The Still Life Project at

ARTichokes



I was surprised the still life setup went so quickly, then I realized Vicki had painstakingly set it up at home the evening before! She looked at it from all angles, tried different elements, textures, colors. By the time we arrived at ARTichokes this morning, Vicki knew exactly what we needed and what went where. There were a few little changes, due to the lighting, the size of the space, etc., but basically, it went fast.



Tomorrow, Tuesday morning at 10:00am the doors will open and I hope painters come to paint Vicki's creation....it is a beauty! I took these photos, and yes, it changed slightly as it was built, but they will give you an idea of the elegance in design. Please, if you love to paint, come join us. The still life will remain in place until Friday afternoon.

Paint the whole beautiful arrangement, or pick your favorite part!

Tuesday through Friday, 10:00am to 5:00pm. Hope to see you there!
