After the morning walk and breakfast, Margaret did a 1-hr talk and demo on painting roads and correcting a painting, and then Arwed did a talk at 10 on how the eyes see color followed by discussion on how emotion and personality effects artists' paintings. Then we painted until lunch when Priscilla sat for a group portrait session. At breakfast we discussed that about half the group has a rash on their lower legs which for most is not itchy. By mid-morning I also got the rash. It's supper time now and I also have it on the bottom of my left foot and it is itchy. Some of the ladies were going to town and I asked them to bring back something to put on it. In the meantime I took Benedryl. The ladies returned with hydrocortisone with lanocaine, so we'll see. We had a critique about the day's paintings and everyone was pretty industrious, lots of paintings and portraits. Since we weren't expecting to do portraits on this trip, I admire those who worked in other mediums, even pencil. Dinner was a buffet with tons of food. Tomorrow is Bologna, leaving at 8:30.

Sample of our buffet, in the upper section at 1 o'clock, there was this nice tuna paste. The cheese at 9 o'clock with jam was to die for. Everything is fresh and delicious. |
