Our congratulations to the STLWS members who were juried into the exhibition:
With our weather so unseasonably warm, Mary Riney planned a plein air event for the STLWS members at Faust Park on Monday, April 3. Here are some photos from the event. It looks like they had a nice turn out and lovely day to paint.
On the Spot Painters – local plein air artists Judy Stroup, Mary Drastal, and Sandy Haynes – will be exhibiting their works in the Webster Groves Public Library’s gallery during the month of April, 2023.
Janine was so excited to share some of her recent news and we want to share it with you. Her paintings are achieving wonderful accolades and she is building quite a presence with her artwork. Our congratulations go out to Janine!
