Not Just Tables

I got up to the Studio in the late afternoon to do some prep work for tomorrow's 3D class.  I set up in our classic print studio to work on some sample pieces.  Molly showed up about a half hour before the crit was due to begin to set up for the event.  Once again we decided to take advantage of the more spacious room with the tables to be our meeting site- it just needed a thorough sweeping up of sawdust. Besides, Molly's in progress tables were there anyway, and as heavy as those things are, it's much easier to move the people to the tabletops than the tabletops to the other shop.

As it turned out, we didn't need as much space as we sometimes do, with only 6 artists present.  Most of the art can be seen in the above photo.  Top row:  clay figures from Margery, and my initial black and white drawing of my mural proposal (the only bit of my own art I've worked on lately)  Middle row:  the most recent state of a woodcut Mary started during the last workshop, and a pastel drawing from Edy.  Bottom row, a painting from Edy, and a couple of Molly's tabletops.

Above, more of Molly's tabletops with the original sketches.  Below, little ink drawings that Molly does when she has a few minutes of downtime in her busy days.

Also present was regular member Vince, though he didn't bring any art this time.  And as we were putting stuff away, Tim (another of our regulars) showed up, just having gotten out of work.  At least they could enjoy some snacks before we closed down for the night.
