Art Reception: Monday Morning Colored Pencil Group

Monday Morning Colored Pencil Group

Originally, they met and were part of watercolor pencil class in 2017 at Rockland Center for the Arts. With the Covid closedown of the world in March 2020 this small group of ladies found they needed to still connect. With the changing world and the introduction of video chat they found they were able to still get together and draw via Zoom - and Monday Morning Colored Pencil Group started.

Once a week they connect in their own home studios, kitchens, dining rooms and dens. Many times, still in pajamas –sharing family stories, book and movie reviews, insights, and opinions, all the while drawing together. Sometimes on a group project, other times on individual pieces.

Now that the Covid close down is over, they have added another component once a month they meet in person to share and critique their art pieces over a cup of coffee. They have become a close-knit group of supportive wonderful friends who create some great art together.
