MILLER ART CENTER SHOW

NEW ! You can also pick up at the Miller on Friday, August 10, from 11 AM to 6 PM. This will mean that there won’t be a conflict with going to the opening at the Artisan’s Show.

REED GALLERY-NEWS

As many of you know by now, Elaine Reed, co-owner of the Reed Gallery in Chester, Vermont, has had an unfortunate fall while painting at Monhegan, and has shattered her wrist. She and Bob have decided that it would be best, therefore, to cancel our show there, originally scheduled For September this year. We’ve had some wonderful shows and generous hospitality at the Reed Gallery, so we have much to be grateful for. We wish Elaine a speedy recovery and send our best wishes to them both. Thank you, Elaine and Bob, for being such loyal VWS members and hosts. We look forward to seeing your gallery thrive in the future and hope you can find some ease during recovery.

As news of this change in plans became known, we had several offers for a replacement venue. Although we have had our sights on a possible Northern location for a show, it is not forthcoming at this time. We will be working on making that happen next year. Meanwhile, Doris Ingram has arranged for a show at the West River Gallery in Weston, Vermont. Tentative opening date would be October 3. A lovely location for a fall foliage show. More details to follow.

CORTINA INN SHOWS:

Anyone who has work up at the Cortina Inn should have gotten a letter from Ann McFarren with instructions as to how to continue showing there or remove your work. Ann has been a volunteer there for 11 years, co-ordinating shows and handling all the necessary clerical work. She will be retiring at the end of July, and states that “ If you wish to continue showing with this gallery, you will need to establish connections with the Inn through the front desk. I have no names to give you at this time as management has changed hands. I still have my card file with your information and gallery listings. If you wish to check on the status of your work or remove or change it by the end of July, call or email me. 802-773-2197 admcfarren@cs.com “

The phone # at the Cortina Inn is 1-800-451-6108

THANK_YOU, Ann, for all your hard work and support!

VWS Newsletter 6-21-07

Greetings, Vermont Watercolor Society watercolorists!

SPRING MEETING

There are wonderful and promising things afoot in our Society. I will try to give you a brief overview of our Spring Meeting with more details to follow in a future newsletter.
We had an excellent presentation by our Vice President, Jan Olmstead, bringing us up to speed on the results of the VWS survey done earlier this year. Highlights of the results include:

1. A strong desire from the membership to have more social contact with each other by various means, the most commonly suggested being regional gatherings of some sort.
2. Members are quite happy with our shows and the opportunities they bring to all of us. It is one of the main reasons for joining.
3. There was some discussion about the question of volunteering for office and/or other functions/opportunities within the Society. This brought up further questions about job definitions, time and distances issues. Clearly people are willing to help out, but need some structure to work with.

We also saw a very interesting slide show of current works from the American Watercolor Society compliments of Rob O’Brien, who is a member. There were paint samples donated by M. Graham to try- these paints (watercolor and gouache) are made with honey and have an interesting texture. Some people brought painted squares and some made them with the sample paints, which we put together into a little mosaic.

We had a lot of new members at the Spring Meeting. It was wonderful to meet you all, as well as enjoy old friends. Several people joined right after the meeting!

Please extend a big welcome to:

Nancy Ball from Tinmouth, Vt.
Peter/Paedra Bramhall from Bridgewater Vt.
Ann Clark from Mendon, Vt.
Isobel Cochran from Hanover, N.H.
Chase Delaney from Sharon, Vt.
Sarah Drown from Georgia Ctr. Vt.
Sandra Ershow from Waterbury, Vt.
Sue Houchens from Jericho, Vt.
Louise Pfaelzer from Morrisville, Vt.
Ann Semprebon from Hanover, N.H.

All were at the meeting. In addition, a new member just signed up:

Catherine Finnegan from Quechee, Vt.




Our membership has grown to about 128 members!



After the presentation we divided up into 6 discussion groups to address various issues generated from the answers to the survey. Each group then gave excellent reports on their findings, and it was especially noteworthy that most people found this process very satisfactory. It gave everyone an opportunity to meet other members and have a meaningful and productive dialogue. And it helped people to feel more like participants in the doings of VWS.

As a result of this process, the Board and some of the more active Committee members met this past Monday evening to come up with a plan of action and a vision which we hope will set up the Society for long-term success. A small group of us will be meeting regularly to work out the details and make some revisions to the structure of the Board in particular, as it is quite clear that the election and volunteer process has been quite unstable at times and this has created some problems such as:

1. Burned-out/overworked leadership
2. A certain apprehension about voulunteering, because….. well, see above!

We hope to change that in very significant ways. Just to give you a hint-we will try to make volunteer jobs be well-defined, time limited and well-suited to your skills and social needs. We hope to have more workshops and social events in the future. The leadership workload will be better distributed and manageable. Communications will improve, both formally (via the newsletters) and informally via networking.

And, of course, our shows are blossoming into 2009!


With that in mind, here’s a reminder about our upcoming open (un-juried) show:

UPCOMING SHOW:

From Annette Compton:

JOHN LYNCH RETURNS!

John approaches watercolor differently: in thick, joyous
blobs of color. Join him on location for his third summer—

• Watercolor in Woodstock

August 1 through 5, 2007
Wednesday evening at 6:00 pm
4 days 9 am - 4 pm, with an hour lunch break
Monday Critique 9 am - 12 noon
$390.00 per person

Enjoy Vermont during our beautiful summer while studying with this effervescent and talented artist from London. We go to many local gardens and farms to enjoy painting on site. John says, “This watercolor workshop on location in beautiful Woodstock, Vermont will have a strong focus on shadow and light and will favour an impressionistic approach towards painting. Those attending will be encouraged to find their own individual style and spirit, and to create their own reality from the world they see around them. Techniques in colour theory should not be forgotten, but should also not get in the way of risk-taking and experimentation with the medium. Mark making, splash effects, colour bleeding and unconventional colour usage including gouache and white paint will be covered in each of the four painting days on location. This is the workshop for painters who want to create vibrant watercolors and works of art that transcend the everyday and release their spirits through painting.” You’ll enjoy John’s relaxed approach as have many others. This is his third summer teaching for Compton ART.

A maximum of 12 people will be at the workshop each day. There is a possibility that we will take people on a daily basis unless the workshop fills. As the workshop gets closer, we'll post the materials list here on the website.

HEINEBERG SENIOR CENTER

It is with great pleasure that the Burlington, Vermont, Heineberg Senior and
Community Center announces the opening of IMAGERY, our exciting new program
for artists and poets. Our first artist-and-poet-of-the-month, beginning
Friday, September 7, 2007 at 7:00 p.m., in the HSCC Gallery at 14 Heineberg
Road, Burlington, will be a very talented husband and wife team.

Victoria Shalvah Herzberg came to Vermont from Houston,Texas. She was
selected to attend Vermont Artist's Week at Vermont Studio Center in 2005.
Victoria joined Two Rivers Print Making Studio that same year. Two of her
paintings were selected for postcard announcements of Vermont Watercolor
Society exhibit openings, and in 2006, she became a signature member of VWS.
Victoria's work has been shown in many local venues as well as state-wide
with VWS.

Don Herzberg was born in Los Angeles and raised in Houston, Texas. He
received his MD in 1968 from Washington University School of Medicine in St.
Louis. While practicing medicine in the early 90's he began studying
poetry, and eventually came here to Burlington College to study with Dana
Levin. In February 2002, Don was a resident at Vermont Studio Center and
that fall entered the New England College Creative Writing Program in
Poetry, receiving his MFA in 2004. He has published poems in the "Northern
New England Review", the "Alembic" and, in collaboration with his wife,
published a collection entitled, "Our Land: Prints and Poems".

We happily invite all of you organization presidents, and your members to
mark your calenders and join us in this celebration of art and poetry. In
the meantime, go to hscenter@verizon.net for a copy of our IMAGERY Proposal, follow
the instructions, and be a part of this breakthrough adventure.

Thanks to all of you for helping get IMAGERY started,

Regina Murray
Brault

NOTE: This is an invitation to submit your work for future pairings with poets as well as to attend this event. Congratulations, Vickie and Don. They responded to Regina’s initial invitation to VWS members.

CALL FOR ENTRIES: Peter Jeziorski has alerted us to a juried show at the Hunter Gallery in Grafton, Vt. (where he is currently showing). Entries are due July 13. Go here for information:
