This year’s fall DAAL member’s show will be held at the Dublin Community Recreation Center from Saturday, November 5th to Saturday, December 3rd. Not only is it a great way to get your work out in the public eye and to see what other member’s have been working on over the summer, but it’s a fun way to be more involved in the league and get better acquainted with members you may not know so well. Cindy Bryden has volunteered to Chair the event (thank you Cindy) and I’m sure she would be happy to have some other members step up and offer her assistance.

The 2011 Dublin Art Fair has come and gone, and thanks to the combined efforts of everyone involved, was bigger and better than our previous art fairs. In spite of the near-record heat on Saturday visitor turn out was great. Many artists reported good traffic and sales. Because of the increase in the number of participating artists, this year’s fair covered much more territory, and had a new, easy to navigate, layout that both artists and visitors seemed to enjoy.

Cindy Bryden says that they had a beautiful day for the 8th Annual Paint Out this past Saturday.  Thirteen people painted for the day and of those 10 entered the painting contest. Fran Mangino was the judge and had some very positive and constructive critical analysis of the paintings. Visit the Dublin Library to see the paintings and begin the Art Stroll. The cash awards go to: 1st place: Tom Cole for his entry of the Dublin Village Tavern. Fran really liked his composition and values. The play of shadows and light could have been better organized on the left side of the door but overall a strong piece. 2nd place: Rachel Ramm  for her entry of the white house with the red geraniums. Fran comments are: nice light on the house, need to extend a bit of dark green to the left of the house to keep the house…
