How NOT to be a Starving Artist
A Presentation
Wednesday, November 8
6:30-8:30pm Central Time
Image 5388304
My pastel friend Marcia Gorra-Patek has asked me to demo (on Zoom) at
their meeting of the Wisconsin Pastel Artists
next week. Since that will be my only day off from the Wurstfest
(which I need to rest my hand and wrist!) I suggested some kind of
presentation instead.
We came up with this idea! I will be dredging the depths of my decades
of experiences and habits that have led me to NOT be a starving artist,
and I will be sharing it all with the WPA!
This Zoom presentation is for WPA members only, so if you'd like to
come, you can join this pastel society here.
(You don't even have to live in Wisconsin!) Contact them here
for the Zoom invite,
in case your membership application is delayed.
