Figure Drawing Session Aftermath

Our first Figure Drawing session went off without a hitch! Thank you to everyone who came out. Organized in conjunction with the Visual Arts Society, we will hold a two-hour session at the studio every Wednesday night. I wanted to start a post for reactions and feedback from anyone who went or tried to go. Was it easy enough to find? We are working on getting some signage up to make things easier. How were the accomodations? The chairs? The lighting? The model area? Let us know what you thought of everything and what we could do to make it better for you. It was a great time, and such a great feeling finally getting a figure session in our studio! Thanks again to everyone who came, and to Cindy for helping to organizing everything. We look forward to hearing from everyone and seeing you next week.

"Signing Statement" Opens @ the Pump House

Three of the Green bay Street Studio members, Matthew Duckett, Jenn Bushman & Erich Boldt recently opened an exhibition at the Pump House Regional Arts Center. The show features drawings from all three artists--one triptych each--and explores the various modern approaches to drawing. The group decided to exhibit drawings, as the medium is relatively under-exhibited, and is only recently seeing a resurgence of popularity. Matt, Jenn, and Erich hope to bring this appreciation to theLa Crosse area with their latest exhibition. The show also features a wall dedicated to work by the rest of the members of the Green Bay Street Studio.

Show runs September 4th through October 11th. See the Pump House's website for more information. Pump House hours are: T-F 12p-5, Sat. 12p-4.
