Bring a Painting for Feedback!
NO Cost but Donation Appreciated
“Painting Watching: A Gentle Critique” is a group of directed activities that Molly designed as a format to talk about works of art. While they can be used in many ways, these activities are especially effective as tools for feedback to artists as they are creating the piece. Molly will bring one of her prints as a basis for the activities to introduce us to the idea of a gentle critique. The free session is limited to ten people who will bring a painting of their own to offer for critique. Contact Beverley Pirtle at bapirtle[at]comcast.net to register. Donations are accepted.
Molly is a member of NMWS-SC, and artist, and an educator who splits her time between Las Cruces and San Diego. She gave the November 2023 program on this subject. There was a follow-up “mini meeting ‘on this subject which was very popular last year. Molly graciously agreed to present this mini meeting again for us on November 16th.
For 47 years, teaching was Molly’s “Winter” art, and painting was her “Summer” one. Now, retired from both the 6th grade classroom and as an adjunct Art Education professor at School of Museum of Fine Arts Boston/Tufts University, she is a full-time artist who teaches a little bit and divides her time between Las Cruces and Southern California.
