ARTogether Painters Interpret Books

The five artists currently participating in the church’s painting group, ARTogether, showed the October Women’s Fellowship group their interpretations of the“Reading for Renewal” books they read and translated into a work of art, and also described the process of their selections, as well as tidbits about the books themselves. Pictured below are the ARTogether participants with their paintings and details related to them: Kay Gerlach, watercolor, “Afghan Girls,” Stones into Schools, Greg Mortenson; Cindy Woodling, acrylic, Last Train to Paradise, Les Sandiford; Cheryl Beller, mixed media, Signora deVinci, Robin Maxwell; Sylvia Kornelsen, oil, “Dunkin’ Doughnuts with Olive,” Olive Kitteridge, Elizabeth Strout; Karen Britton, watercolor, Half Broke Horses, Jeanette Walls.

ARTogether is open to all church members who paint, regardless of media. Rather than a teaching group, it is friends painting with friends. Novices and experienced painters are welcome – the current group includes both. They generally paint in Room 9 on Mondays, except the second Monday, during the hours of 10 am – 3 pm. Time to chat occurs during alunch break. Other times the artists get serious with their current project as they concentrate on it. Call any of the painters with questions you might have. We’d love to have additional painters this winter!
