Art demos are a big help !

Last Wednesday night at the Arts Guild of Rahway we had the pleasure of a still life demo from our instructor Ray Horner.

It was amazing to watch how quickly Ray sketched out the composition with oil paint while slowly building up the form and color, he made it look so easy. Ray broke it down step by step for us and was happy to answer all of our questions while he worked.

Some times you can talk about how to paint till your blue in the face and still not get it...you have to see the process...watch a pro at work and that’s when the little bell goes off in your head...so that’s how you do it ! Thanks Ray !

Thanks for the kind words. Can't wait for September. We also have a nice class that feeds well from each other.

I am not surprised. Ray is always passionate about helping others. His reward is seeing folks "Get It"
Keep up the great work.
