Our on-line Break-a-Brush artist’s resource and community has been live and growing for 7 months now, garnering an enthusiastic following for methods, ideas and video segments. David’s been publishing a minimum of twice a week and has had much to say about style, colour, perspective and composition, to name a few (links to August articles follow below).
We’d like to enlist your help in communicating the world of “Break-a-Brush”: Workshops, Mentoring and web-resources, to artists who you might feel would enjoy taking a look at our arts community.
As part of the launch of our Fall programs, we’re hosting a virtual “open house” at Break-a-Brush. All methods and posts will be available in the public section of the site for a limited period. France and I would be appreciative were you to pass the word along to those you feel might benefit: for example, anyone who might like to receive my regular email bulletins as we’d be delighted to welcome them into our community.
This Fall, we’re looking forward to hosting another exciting workshop series: during 6 workshops, (http://www.breakabrush.com/workshops/) we will profile Classical, Impressionist and Post-Impressionist painters who’ve changed the course of art and also cover key painting subjects….with a twist!
Break-a-Brush!
David & France
