Submitted by Rebekah Scaduto on Wed, 05/16/2012 - 1:22pm
On Thursday, May 17 at 7pm, Karla K. Cook will demonstrate her techniques for pastel painting. “If you paint what you love, people will love what you paint.  I have found that using my love of animals with my love of painting makes for a winning combination. With each animal I paint, I attempt to bring that animal’s personality through the painting to the viewer. My greatest success is seeing a smile flash across someone’s face when they look at my paintings.”  This demonstration is put on by the Woburn Guild of Artists, and will take place at New Horizons at Choate, in the Terrace Lounge.
