October Challenge Results - Month 1

Well, here goes!  This inaugural exhibition of the "A Painting A Month Club" is launching with 14 artists painting their rendition of a photo of the Cox Reservation in Essex, MA.  These artists sincerely hope that you enjoy viewing their art and comparing artistic impressions on a single subject.  These are all accomplished artists, and you can contact them or view their blogs or web pages through information in the right margin of this page.  If you own a venue in the area (generally north of Boston), the club would be pleased to hang a show in your establishment in short order and would enjoy the opportunity.

Success! So far 13 have met the challenge.

I've received 13 so far and there's still a little time left.  Interest is building.  This blog is open to anyone in our area, namely, Boston and it's suburbs, north of Boston, southern N.H., southern Maine.  The blog will roll over tonight into November and then October will be achived.  That is the reason why the October challenge paintings will be put up on the first of the following month, so they will stay up on the screen for a month.  The archive is easily accessible by clicking on the month you want.  The November challenge photo has been sent out, let me know if you need it:  mpyche@comcast.net
