WIPAPA: Lake Geneva Opportunity

from: WIPAPA mricl4hlth@aol.com via mail79.atl11.rsgsv.net

Lake Geneva needs 3 more artists for this: 

On Saturday Sept 28th The Wood Boat Foundation of America-Blackhawk Chapter will hold their Annual Convention at the beautiful Abbey Resort on lake Geneva in the village of Fontana.
There is a $50. stipend for each artist to cover gas and lunch. During the Cocktail Reception artists will show their work for auction with a 50/50 split for the artist and the WB Foundation for their scholarships and the Water Safety Patrol and Lake Geneva Conservancy also benefiting.
The Abbey Harbor which will be the painting location has lots of tall trees and good shade. This event attracts many wooden boat lovers and is a unique event to be able to paint little seen vintage restored boats.
 
Call Nancy Newcomb 262-248-6344 if interested.

The "theme" of the day is the painting by Renoir "THE BOATING PARTY" I AM GOING TO TRY TO DRESS AS A CHARACTER IN THAT PAINTING- I usually look like one anyway-baggy clothes and a big big straw hat!

 
Thanks,  Nancy Newcomb THE TREES STUDIO
