SUMMARY:February 2024 Meeting:  Playing with Fire\, Color\, and Wax
DESCRIPTION:What is Encaustics?  How do I paint with wax?  Let’s take a look at the basics of this versatile medium.  It’s fascinating\, sometimes frustrating\, yet a lot of fun.  Below are examples of Jaimie’s take on this ancient technique practiced by Greek artists as far back as the 5th Century B.C.  See more HERE in her online exhibit\, Big Skies and Water Dreams. \n\n		\n		\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				Winter Trees\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				Morning in Tuscany\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				Warm Italian Light\n				\n		\n\nTake a look at this YouTube video of the beauty of encaustics in action by artist Alicia Tormey. \nAbout the presenter\, Jaimie Ladysh: \n \nJaimie is a lens based interdisciplinary artist. Her work is rooted in place in a spiritual way within the natural world. Currently exploring digital with edited and some composited images\, she prints the images on special archival papers\, then further manipulates with hand-coloring\, painting\, and sometimes encaustics. The results are often described as ethereal. Whether representational or abstract\, she seeks the little mysteries found when light models on forms and color. \nJaimie has a long use photography of traditional film and silver gelatin\, Cyanotype\, Van Dyke\, Photograms\, photo manipulations\, infrared\, and other alternative processes. As a fine art major\, she began exploring hand tinting\, coloring\, and painting of photographs with oils\, pencils\, and water based media while at the university. She used 35 mm\, 2 1/4 x 21/4\, and toy cameras. \nHer work is archival; made with materials for longevity. She has been in many galleries\, press\, and venues. Pieces are in private\, public\, and corporate collections. All pieces are in limited editions of 10 or 15 in one or more sizes. \nJaimie was born in Ohio\, and has lived in a variety of places in many states and countries. She earned a BFA from University of Montana with a certificate to teach. She has been an art educator in Houston for 30 years. \nVisit Our Artists Webpage to see more of her work!  Note: All VAS members can get their own page – just fill out the FORM! \nDoors open at DEGALLERY at 5:30pm for our February meeting.  There will be light refreshments.  Come by a bit early\, chat and catch up!

SUMMARY:January 2024 Meeting:  Setting Up A Teaching Art Studio
DESCRIPTION:Many artists are venturing into setting up their own teaching studio\, in addition to creating art\, to augment their income.  Wendy Keeney-Kennicutt will be telling her story of starting Brazos Watercolor Retreats in 2019 with Monika Pate and Robyn Glass\, making it through covid and where BWR is today.  Included will be all the nitty-gritty about starting a small\, home-based business:  figuring out location\, name\, websites\, email\, finances\, insurance\, outfitting the place with lighting and furniture\, art supplies\, refreshments and advertising. She will also share a typical lesson.  So if you are interested in learning more\, please come! \nAbout the presenter\, Dr. Wendy Keeney-Kennicutt: \nBryan-College Station has been my home since I arrived from Watertown\, NY in 1975 to earn my Ph.D. in Oceanography.  It was here I graduated\, met and married my love (48 years+). I taught First Year Chemistry at Texas A&M University for 30 years & ran the Chemistry Open House for 13 years.  Teaching was my passion; I earned many awards including the prestigious Presidential Professor for Teaching Excellence. I still tutor students in first year chemistry. I started watercolor as a complete novice in 2013 just before retiring\, taking local classes with Hailey Herrera\, Chris Wilson\, Robyn Glass and Monica Pate. In 2019\, Monica\, Robyn and I started “Brazos Watercolor Retreats” in my art studio\, but they moved on to other endeavors and now I continue to have monthly classes and give private lessons. I have been on the board of the Visual Art Society of Bryan-College Station for several years: 2016–2023 as treasurer\, and president/technology chair for 2023-2024. I also manage our Aggieland Art Trail project. My  watercolors have won many local awards\, including VAS Best in Show in 2021. \nVisit Our Artists Webpage to see more of her work!  Note: All VAS members can get their own page – just fill out the FORM! \nDoors open at DEGALLERY at 5:30pm for our January meeting.  There will be light refreshments.  Come by\, chat and catch up!

SUMMARY:November Meeting: How To Price Artwork So It Actually Sells
DESCRIPTION:Learning how to price artwork is challenging for lots of artists. If you’re struggling with where to start and wondering how to price your art in a fair way that represents your effort and will sell\, you’ll find this presentation super helpful! \nIt’s really important for artists to understand things like commission prices\, pricing artwork that has already been completed\, and the differences between selling independently and selling through a gallery. Most artists need some income to be able to keep making art. Creating an excellent portfolio and pricing your pieces appropriately will mean you can keep doing what you love and\, better yet\, get paid for it! \nAbout the Presenter\, Dr. Daria Penionzhkevich Dega:\n\nPh.D.\, MAA\, MD\n\nHighly experienced manager\n\nBusiness owner of Award-Winning International Gallery and Art Studio DEGALLERY.\nAward-winning artist.\nFounder and director of non-for-profit art organization DEGA International Art Association.\n\nFor most children born in Russia\, a country with deep\, versatile history and tradition in the arts\, art is an important part of their childhood. For Dary Dega\, the owner of Aggieland’s newest destination for artists\, DEGALLERY\, it was no different. Like most Russian children\, she was raised attending museums and concert halls\, going to the ballet\, and classical music concerts. \nBut Dary may have fallen even deeper in love with the arts at an early age\, thanks to traveling extensively all over Europe as a child with her father\, who was a renowned scientist\, and the rest of her family. Throughout her travels\, she continuously learned more about the fine arts and their beginnings at every turn. That early passion remained fervent for Dary\, who would go on to later graduate from art school and music school while also pursuing a career in medicine. \nDary emigrated to the USA in 2014 and moved with her husband because he assumed the position of physics professor at Texas A&M University. Following the move to Texas\, Dary’s lifelong love of art inspired her to launch a unique gallery in her new home in Aggieland\, a dream of hers\, to build a space allowing every artist of every age\, at every talent level\, to express themselves. \nDrawing upon her experience from some of the best art teachers in the world\, in some of the top art schools in the world\, art classes at DEGALLERY are unmatched. Degallery was awarded as Best Gallery\, Best Art Studio\, and Best Summer Camp for Kids in 2022 and 2023. \nDary Dega continues to support local\, national\, and international artists\, including kids and professional masters. She is the founder and director of the International Grand Art Event DEGART\, the Funder International Kids Art Contest HAPPY DEGART\, and the International Winter Art Show and competition. \nShe also continues as an artist to participate in art shows and competitions and provide high-quality art classes workshops and educational presentations. \nVisit Our Artists Webpage to see more of her work!  Note: All VAS members can get their own page – just fill out the FORM! \nDoors open at DEGALLERY at 5:30pm for our November meeting.  There will be light refreshments.  Come by\, chat and catch up!

SUMMARY:Brazos Valley Gives - Tuesday\, Oct 17\, 2023
DESCRIPTION:  \n \nThe Visual Art Society of B-CS has been involved with Brazos Valley Gives for the last 4 years.   You can visit our page at www.brazosvalleygives.org/Visual_Art_Society  On the page we have a fundraiser page for the Aggieland Art Trail.  All proceeds go toward all our community projects\, including scholarships for art students.  All donors giving at least $20 will be listed on our Sponsor webpage and on our Aggieland Art Trail brochure.  Early giving started September 18.  It is a wonderful event for the community. \nBrazos Valley Gives\, an initiative of the Community Foundation of the Brazos Valley\, is a month-long community giving effort that culminates in 18 hours of online giving on the 3rd Tuesday of October. Giving together as one community to raise money and awareness for local nonprofits in 7 Brazos Valley counties can do a great deal. \n\nBrazos Valley Gives is a community day of giving that strengthens nonprofits\, empowers donors\, and builds community. The goal for 2023 Brazos Valley Gives is $1\,250\,000 with 165 participating nonprofit organizations. During 2022\, donors rallied to raise $1\,176\,760 and donated 9\,677 volunteer hours to support the good works of 161 nonprofit organizations. Since 2019\, the Community Foundation’s Brazos Valley Gives Day has raised $3\,268\,788 for participating nonprofits in the 7-county region of the Brazos Valley.\n\n\n\n\n\nThis annual day of “giving where you live” is powered by the Community Foundation of the Brazos Valley\, and all donations pass-thru directly to the donor’s charity or charities of choice.

SUMMARY:Let's start at the beginning... a little felt and a little spinning!
DESCRIPTION:We have been using and manipulating fibers for millennia\, at least 100\,000 years and probably a lot longer.  Unfortunately\, this organic material doesn’t survive BUT just because we don’t see evidence of it doesn’t mean it didn’t exist or wasn’t used. I will introduce you to felt and to spinning yarn on a spindle and a spinning wheel. While I am spinning\, we can discuss the history of fiber\, felt and twisted cordage. We can also touch on the importance of these technological innovations to our artistic lives today and in the future. \nAbout the Presenter\, Helen Dewolf (in her own words) \n \nI am a tapestry weaver and fiber artist. My undergrad was in Fine Arts from the University of Waterloo\, Waterloo\, Ontario in 1977. After working as a fiber artist for a few years (as well as other occupations) I came to grad school at TAMU in Anthropology/Nautical Archaeology in 1987 and graduated with a PhD in 1995. I was employed in the Center for Maritime Archaeology and Conservation in the Conservation Research Lab illustrating archaeological artifacts for publications and conserving artifacts. I retired as chief conservator in 2020. \nDuring the intervening years\, I have been weaving tapestries and producing fiber art pieces. I belong to the Brazos Spinners & Weavers Guild (BSWG) and INTERSECTIONS Textile Learning Center & Gallery (ITLC). As a member of both BSWG and ITLC\, I have promoted the textile and fibers arts in this area for about 20 years. \nVisit Our Artists Webpage to see more of her work!  Note: All VAS members can get their own page – just fill out the FORM! \nDoors open at DEGALLERY at 5:30pm for our October meeting.  There will be light refreshments.  Come by\, chat and catch up!

SUMMARY:Old School Rules! The Magic of Silver Gelatin Prints
DESCRIPTION:Old School Rules! The Magic of Silver Gelatin Prints \nIf asked to name some famous artists who used photography as their medium\, what names come to mind? Ansel Adams? Edward Weston? Henri Cartier Bresson? Imogene Cunningham? Dorothea Lange? Margaret Bourke-White? These are all giants in the field who have their photographs in major art museums and private collections. All of them captured “decisive moments” and masterful images using technology and equipment that by today’s standards seems archaic\, or even primitive. Or is it? For many commercial photographers\, advanced digital cameras and powerful image-editing software are “must-haves\,” but many artistic photographers are still using film cameras to capture their images\, and even still printing in traditional “wet” darkrooms! Why? Come hear one photographer describe this mysterious and arcane process from start to finish; and discuss some of the advantages and trade-offs for doing things “the old-fashioned way.” \nAbout the Presenter\, Joel Kitchens (in this own words): \nAlthough I was born in Birmingham\, and grew up in small towns around northern Alabama\, I have lived in Texas since 1997\, and was on the faculty of Texas A&M University for nearly 25 years before retiring. \nAs a photographer\, I am largely self-taught. I did take an art photography class in college that taught the basics of black and white film photography (no digital in those days!). Today\, my photographic process remains traditional and purposely retro; from capturing images on black and white films in sizes from 35mm and 2 ¼ x 2 ¼\, to 4×5 inches (my favorite!)\, developing the film in a wet darkroom\, to printing the images on silver gelatin papers from the enlarged negatives. Each print is hand processed according to the Ilford archival sequence\, toned in selenium\, and mounted using acid-free materials for longevity. \nMy photography reflects a wide range of interests\, including historic sacred architecture\, landscapes and nature\, abstracts\, and still life. With my photographs\, I try to attract viewers’ interest by revealing the “spirit of place\,” as well as the interplay of light and shadow. I also try to show through my images that beauty\, serenity\, and tranquility are to be found all around us. In doing so\, my purpose is to highlight overlooked details\, pique viewers’ curiosity\, and encourage them to see and experience familiar places anew. \nVisit Our Artists Webpage to see more of his work!  Note: All VAS members can get their own page – just fill out the FORM! \nDoors open at DEGALLERY at 5:30pm for our first meeting of the fall.  There will be light refreshments.  Come by\, chat and catch up!

SUMMARY:Deadline Extended to Aug 25th for VAS Members Show "Aqua Vita"
DESCRIPTION:Aqua Vita\, the water of life\, has many meanings. Water is its physical form (solid\, liquid\, gas) but is also a symbol of new beginnings\, transformation\, cleansing\, renewal and hope\, and a symbol for change. \nAll members are invited to submit entries. Deadline has been extended to August 25th.  Click HERE for entry details. It is easy to become a member of VAS – click HERE! \nThe general theme is water: the physical entity of water in all its forms\, but you can also think of the symbolism of water. It can represent the change that we experience in our own lives\, as we grow and mature. It can also represent the change that we see in the world around us\, as the environment changes and evolves. Water is a reminder that change is a natural part of life. It is something that we cannot control\, but it is something that we can embrace. Change can be scary\, but it can also be exciting. It can be a time of new beginnings\, new opportunities\, and new challenges. Water is a powerful symbol of change\, and it can help us to understand and embrace the changes that are happening around us. (partially written by Bard AI)
