Sit and sip and join the fun at Island Gallery and Studios for these free interactive discussion sessions on what makes a good piece of art. For example, are you stuck in your current painting? Are you having trouble deciding whether or not it's finished? Is it missing something, but you don't know exactly what?

We could have answers for you! We will look at basic design elements such as balance, space, color distribution and value. Come join a few of our gallery members as we introduce you to Critique Corner.

Bad Hair Day, Flickinger

We invite you to just come and listen or bring your paintings, particularly those that might have a problem, and we'll help you work through the issues. It's a wonderful learning experience and interesting conversation full of insight and inspiration. Each session will address different issues, so come to one session or all for something a little different each time. Take advantage of this opportunity to add to your ART bucket! See you there.

See our Calendar page for dates.
