John Murray classes week of May 23, 2011



deCordova Supercharged Painting: we have a model on Tuesday, please bring a slightly larger canvas, 18"x24" at least.



Newart Center classes: Picasso once said in an interview, 'A painting is a horde of destructions".

The poet Wallace Stevens was so struck by the quote that he wrote a poem, "The Man with the Blue Guitar" and wondered, "If this made painting a picture of ourselves, an image of our society".

What do you think? please go online and read the Steven's poem if you have a chance. See you next week, john.
