Art Quote of the Day


This caught my eye not just because of the quote but the strong colour. Similar to the vibrant colours one gets using Alcohol Inks. This is a new medium that Arts Northeast is currently experimenting with... results to come soon.

March Painting Challenge - "Something shiny from the kitchen"



Something shiny from the kitchen proved to be a diverse subject for the paintings this month as you can see by the paintings below.  Thanks to Dora for selecting this challenge.


April's challenge will be something a little different! This month, in honour of National Poetry Month, we will interpret Alfred Lord Tennyson's poem "The Kraken". Thanks to Pat for this month's challenge. It is sure to be an interesting one! 


Feel free to paint your interpretation and share it with us!
