Amazing original paintings will be on display and for sale at the Foothills Art Club Annual Fall Show & Sale at the St. Andrews United Church, 128 First St. E, Cochrane, on Saturday, Oct.19th, from 10 am to 4 pm.
There will be a door prize painting, free admission and coffee – a free draw for an original Visions of Cochrane painting by a Foothills Art Club artist whose painting was voted the best by club members. This year’s theme for our Visions of Cochrane paints is “Mountain Views.”
Paintings will be on display for sale in the main gallery, along with dozens of small artworks in the boutique.
Acrylic, oil, watercolour, pastel, multi-media and graphite are some of the mediums used. Club members will be on hand to talk about their paintings and to answer any questions. Visa, MC, Cheques and Cash will be accepted.
The Foothills Art Club is a friendly social group that meets on the first and third Wednesday of each month at St. Andrew’s from 6:30 to 8:30 pm. There are monthly scheduled all-weekend ‘paint outs’ at Beaupre Hall, west of Cochrane, as well as outside ‘plein-air’ painting sessions in the summer. The Club has guest presentations and demonstrations throughout the year and weekend workshops led by professional instructors. Once a month there is a ‘theme night’ where members share a special technique or resource. Also a monthly ‘critique’ night is held for members to bring their work for suggestions or feedback. New members are welcome.
