This is one of many very good reasons to become a member of TECAC!!  Mosaic Artist Dotti Stone had our members create some really great mosaics after our monthly meeting.  We don't just talk, we act; and with her expertise and our artistic talents, beautiful things happen.  Thank you, Dotti, for a fun, creative time.

Perri Mason's "Barn Cat" at RSPCA Show

This is "Barn Cat", a watercolor painting done for the RSPCA show. Everyone is given a 12" x 12" canvas, so I painted the canvas black and attached the painting to it using matte medium. Then I sprayed 6 coats of archival gloss varnish on the painting so that it doesn't have to be framed.
