  • Pencil
  • Water
  • Paper towels
  • Ruler
  • Any other basic supplies you may need

As usual we will have extras to share, so don’t run out and buy anything.

Need Ideas for April

Should we do a paste paper ‘fun’ day? Other backgrounds? I think it was also mentioned about watercolor flowers. If any of those sound fun, let me know, or if you’d like to lead us, let us know that too. Thanks.

Membership

Thank you everyone who has renewed their membership. Between that and the studio sale, our treasury is a bit healthier for the first time in a few years. Which means, we can think about hosting a 1-day or 2-day weekend workshop. So, think about some subjects you’d like to explore for a longer amount of time than our 2-hour meeting times.

For those who still would like to pay you may use this link from our Web site to pay via PayPal with a slight service charge. Conversely, if you would like to write a check to the GCCG and bring it to the meeting on Nov. 18 or you may mail it to me, GCCG, c/o Jennifer Carroll, 1285 Stubbs Mill Rd., Lebanon, OH 45036.
