Note from Pine Shores President, Tom Rutledge...
At the turn of the century from the 1800’s into the 1900’s the then famous artist,
illustrator Howard Pyle, started a school of art along the Brandywine River in
Southeastern Pennsylvania. Today, the style of painting he taught and the thinking
involved is known as the Brandywine School, and one of the most important things
he emphasized for artists is the use of imagination above all to create.
He advocated good composition through skilled use of abstract design and negative
space. He also taught about observing the effects of wind or water in each
composition and the important impact of light and how it affects the subject in the
work. The artist, by focusing on these things, will be helped in how they portray what
they observe. This in turn excites the imagination of viewers of the work and they
see more in it than the artist ever knew it contained.
Even the great artist Vincent Van Gogh was affected in a positive way by Howard
Pyle as he wrote, “His work struck me with admiration." As artists, we are always
learning...who are we learning from? How important that really is in developing as
an artist.

ART CHAT
We meet at 10am at the Tuckerton Library on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of every month
Hello everyone!
I want to remind those that will be participating in the Art Chat Show to drop off their Art tomorrow, Thursday March 30th from 9 to 5pm at the Little Egg Harbor Library or on Friday morning, March 31st from 9 to noon. I will be hanging the art on Friday beginning at noon. If you drop your art off on Thursday, let one of the Library staff know so they'll put your art in a safe place until it's time to hang it.
I'll keep you posted about the refreshments for the reception on Wednesday, April 19th.
I'm looking forward to seeing all of your Art and for a great opportunity to share Art Chat with the public.
