Judy Anderson: Painting Out Loud, an Artist’s Game Plan Judy Anderson of Westerville will take her audience, step-by-step, through the process of creating and cultivating an artist’s personal viewpoint, starting with an inspirational scene, figure, or still life, and ending up with a work of art which fully embodies that inspiration. Anderson asks, “What kind of composition (vertical, horizontal, circular, cruciform, or overall pattern…) best interprets the idea? What palette sets the mood?” The artist will answer those questions, and any others you may have, in this demonstration-based program.
