What's on Your Easel PWAS Members?
The Prince William Art Society (PWAS) asks the members various questions each month to see what they are up to and want to share with you. This month's question asked about their in progress artwork with "What's on Your Easel?" Let's go see the show...
PWAS Member Zee Berrios
The working title is "Commended Spirit". It's part of the "Sacro" series. It is acrylic on canvas, 12" X 20" (smallest acrylic I've ever done).

PWAS Member Donna Merchant
I just wanted to share a drawing that I’ve been working on. This photo was taken at my son Ben’s graduation from VCU last year. He’s the class of 2024, I’m the class of 1992! This hug represents how proud I was, AM and ALWAYS will be of my one and only “Son-shine”. I’m finishing this drawing this weekend as a Mother’s Day gift for myself..but he will get this drawing eventually.

PWAS Member Kathleen Gates
I've been working on this 20 x 20 canvas. I'm not sure if it is complete.
PWAS Member Patty Gulledge
Although I still have a lot of work to do on this painting, it's coming along. We're renovating two bathrooms, and this piece is meant for the entrance to the one that has a coastal feel (think colors of sea glass and bleached wood). This is the first time I've painted something for a specific room in my house, so I'm hoping it says "this way to the beach!"
PWAS Member Donna Liguria
The working title is "Art Delivery to the Mill" and its a 14x14 canvas in acrylics. The story behind the painting is on my blog Donna's Cave Paintings. The painting in its finished state will be there too. Art Reception at Art at the Mill
I'm a big fan of the biannual Art at the Mill art show held in the Spring and Fall in Milwood, VA. Do a search on this blog Artistry Spin too for more stories and pics about Art at the Mill. I highly recommend that artists at least go see this show if they haven't answered a Call for Art to it yet.
I agree with Kat Gates, I always question if a painting is done yet....don't you? I may spend a couple of days tweaking, tweaking...turn it upside down and look at it that way for awhile and tweak some more.
