Calling all experienced painters: We're offering an opportunity to study oil painting for six weeks with Sandra Roumagoux! This course, for ages 16+, will take place August 5th - September 9th, on Wednesdays from 1-3pm. Students will use oil paint to start new paintings, finish old paintings, and/or try different techniques. This class is specifically for the more experienced painter, to allow a chance for the students to think about a series, bring works in progress, be critiqued, try different subject matter, or different sizes of painting and surfaces.

Space is limited, and registration closes July 31st. Learn more or register now at coastarts.org/events/studio-oils-experienced-artist

Have you ever stopped dead in front of a piece of art and felt something you couldn't quite explain?

That moment — right there — is where every collection begins.
You don't need credentials, a big budget, or the "right" vocabulary to start collecting original art. You just need to say yes to the feeling.

In the latest issue of On View, I'm sharing what collecting actually is, why the bar to entry is so much lower than most people think, and where to go this month to find something that might just stop you cold.

And if you're still thinking about it on the drive home — go back and get it. 😊
