News for August/September, 2008

For those interested in the day-to-day workings of this artist's life and postings of new paintings,
you can visit my Blog : http://susansartjournal.blogspot.com Be sure to leave me a comment when you visit, OK?


Susan Carlin Art Studio & Gallery
I dreamed about having a studio and gallery for a long time... and now it's true!
I'm usually there Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, painting and offering day-long, personal instruction and generally grinning ear-to-ear. 418 Villita Street, 14B. 210-226-3992.

The Way I Teach Now....
Until recently, I taught pastel and oil classes in the usual manner: a 2-and-a- half or 3-hour format to small groups of students. Now I'm teaching one person at a time. Benefits? More personal attention, and long enough time to actually get some work done! Please contact me if you're interested or have questions. I love to see people get turned on by painting! Call me: 210-602-8562

Commissions News
I've been painting many portrait commissions in the last two months- babies and
children and grandfathers and even a cat! I'm starting one of a fellow and his horse soon- should be a pleasure.



I Occasionally Paint Online on UStream.tv
Sunday, July 27th was my first broadcast of livestreaming web TV! I painted for about 5 hours while friends watched from their home computers. I'll be doing that again as time permits. Check my blog for those announcements.

Competition News
In July I was honored by winning Third Place at the Regional Exhibition at the Hill Country Arts Foundation in Ingram, TX.

New Texas Pastel Society
February saw the beginning of a new pastel society in San Antonio. I was honored to be asked to present the program for the first meeting- a pastel portrait demonstration. If you work in pastel anywhere near S.A., you'll want to be a member. Meetings, demonstrations, paint-outs, workshops, exhibition possibilites... and more!

Austin Pastel Society
I've been a member of this group for three years now and have grown so much as an artist with the support and encouragement they've offered. If you do pastels anywhere near San Antonio or Austin, I urge you to join and get to know these wonderful artists.

How do I stay in touch with my art-loving friends?
Just subscribe to my newsletter! There's a link on my home page and at: http://susansartjournal.blogspot.com

Don't forget, I love commissions!
If you'd like a portrait of someone you love (person or pet), or have a photo or idea of some place or thing you envision as a painting, contact me for procedure and fees. The procedure is simple and the fees are still low.
