This Saturday (February 2) Foothills Art Center is offering a class: Painting Note Cards with Janet Nunn. Why paint note cards in February? A few reasons…a great way to learn different techniques in watercolor on a small format. The second reason, is it is nice to give a card for Valentine’s Day, a Birthday, or just sending someone one of your original paintings. In this class participants will learn how to make note cards using various watercolor techniques, splattering, negative space painting, masking, layering paint and more. All in one class. Grab a friend a make a fun day out of painting note cards. Learn more and register….
If you’re interested in Golden History (or old buildings), you should follow Rick Gardner’s Historic Golden Colorado facebook page. He often posts interesting photos and stories about Golden History. A few days ago, he posted a bunch of photos showing the interior of the Astor House in its current state. If you’ve been curious about what’s in there now, check his page!
Wondering what’s happening with the Astor House? The City put out a Request for Proposals, asking for ideas of what to do with it. Five proposals were received and a committee is reviewing them. The proposals have not been released for public review. The committee will make a recommendation to City Council sometime later this spring.
