Text of the page (random words):
st ri exhibition i ve seen by them at the mall galleries on two counts excellent artwork extremely well hung it reads very well throughout both the west and east galleries and most of the north gallery it also has the unique distinction of a very colourful title wall in the west gallery a monochrome title wall in the east gallery ri annual exhibition 2026 very colourful end wall in west gallery ri annual exhibition 2026 monochrome end wall in the east gallery also given there are 462 artworks hung in the show i can also say it s one of the very best hung exhibitions of lots of artwork that i ve seen of the different fba societies who exhibit at the mall galleries too often i ve found exhibitions with lots of artwork to be very difficult to look at because too little thought has been applied to how the works should hang indeed i think maybe there should be a rule don t come to the hanging if you haven t worked out what goes where if you are hanging in excess of 300 i gather that the hang of this exhibition was planned in enormous detail by the new president juliette losq in her first year and the effort has well and truly paid off it is certainly getting lots of visitors this blog post tells you how to see the exhibition whether or not you can visit it at the mall galleries how to check out the events during the exhibition how to check out the standard of work by artists applying to become a member observations about artwork in the exhibition what can be improved for next year plus an extra post tomorrow about the name and the importance of water how to see the ri exhibition you can visit the ri 214th annual exhibition at the mall galleries until 11th april however it is closed in easter sunday and easter monday venue mall galleries the mall

substack which also includes a link which takes you to the website link above content of the plein air painting handout the headings and subheadings are materials pastel basic materials and procedures oils basic materials and procedures note for acrylic painters you d think that over 25 years the handout would need updating but i ve found how to paint consists of some basic principles that like the laws of phyics don t change the only thing that might change are some of the products listed which i have updated for this release plein air methods techniques tips purpose in plein air principals to capturing the landscape quickly accurately how to paint not draw plein air tips which are excellent kt different approaches to interpreting landscape values dominance contrasting pairs finding color
