It’s just chance that the last post was made exactly two years ago. The group has been meeting through these two years. Mondays changed to Wednesdays and back to Mondays and so on and so forth and now the group meets on Thursdays. This blog was put up when the first two members of the group were leaving Dhaka for us to continue to share our art activity. It didnt take off as planned : ) 3 more have left since then and we in Dhaka hope that they will join us and share the art they are making/writing or crafting.
I’ve been a fan of Karin Jurick‘s work for a while now. Recently she started a new weekly painting activity. She posts a reference every Wednesday and you get a week to try drawing or painting it. The blog is called Different Strokes from Different Folks. I thought it was a wonderful way to get our art group members present and past to participate in this or some other weekly activity and to share our efforts here.
This morning we met for the first time with this new agenda. The plan is to spend an hour on each effort and we do this once a week. It’s festival season in Dhaka once again. Id finished a few days back and currently Durga Puja is being celebrated. We selected this photograph from todays edition of Daily Star. You can see the results below.
Fired with enthusiasm we started on a second one which will be completed next thursday. In the meantime, Harriet, Maria, Crystal, Ratna and Tiffany – how about posting your work too?
