# Worthington Area Art League – announcements 5/30/20 #

PUSHING THE ENVELOPE
Painting during the pandemic is a challenge. It is a roller coaster of emotions and moods. Don’t fight it, USE IT. Whether stuck in a rut or exploring a new direction, more brush time is now available. This “ show and tell” of paintings will illustrate how this isolation period has pushed and broadened my creative thinking. Palette, mood and composition changes can push your art while going down the corona road.
This Zoom program is about sharing ideas, styles and palettes and pushing the boundaries. Use “what if” thinking, take artistic risks, and make isolation work for YOU.

We need co-chairs for some shows. If you haven’t chaired a show before, we have experienced chair people who will mentor you.
- Create a piece of art with the theme, “Staying at Home”. I would like to have a show of pieces that tell our stories of sheltering in place.
- Look for the billboard art sponsored by Art P.O.P Street Gallery. There are six billboards in various places in the Columbus are that are showing the winners of the ArtPOP competition Robie Benve (Dublin Area Art League) won a spot and her painting is on a billboard near the Hollywood casino. I saw this one by Chloe Schlorb along Stelzer Rd by the airport.
