October 8, 2018 – Pastel Demonstration by Bill Cone

Our program for October 8^th features a demonstration in soft pastels by California artist Bill Cone. As a set and production designer at Pixar Animation Studios, he discovered the way pastels showed the effect of light on scenery. He’ll share his stories and style as he creates one of his dynamic images from his experiences in nature.

Our November 12^th meeting is our end-of-year potluck, elections and critique with photographer Fletcher Oakes. Members may bring one piece of artwork for his review and comments as time allows. Please, no wet paintings!

All programs are free and open to the public in the Garden Room at the El Cerrito Community Center, 7007 Moeser Lane.
