Painting is going well on the garage doors on Litchfield Lane in Manchester. This striking lion was painted by artist Christine Keenan.<br />

Our fearless leader, Anthony Williams, walked me further down the lane so I could take a photo of his older mural, "The old man of the mountain". It's still in good condition as is the next one.<br />

This painting was organized by Anthony and many of the neighborhood kids worked on it. They signed their names on the right. It was painted in 2008.<br />
<br />
It was sad to see so much graffiti on the garage doors and buildings there, but all the places where there were murals were not tagged and looked great. Thanks to Eagle Eyes group and Anthony Williams for leading this project.<br />

The summer painting murals project has begun. There are several garage doors available for painting on Litchfield Lane. Linda Feinberg, our former treasurer, who is about to leave for Idaho, completed this one, an homage to Van Gogh. Anthony Williams, our Vice President has other garage doors already primed and waiting for the artists who signed up. Of course, the weather is a factor since we have to paint outdoors.<br />

Anthony Williams is painting this eagle, sponsored by Easter Seals for the Veterans Count group. Sylvester was checking the eagle out before Anthony started painting. He hopes to finish the painting this week and says it was more difficult than it looked.<br />

On a wintry spring day, it was great to receive these photos from Debbie Curtin. I asked our members to send in some new work and she was the first one to respond. Debbie had prepared these paintings for a class she was going to teach, then her class was canceled due to snow. I feel sorry for her students. These are great paintings to learn from. Thanks, Debbie for submitting. These paintings are done with exterior house paint on luan plywood sealed with polyacrylic.<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, I was tired of painting landscapes and decided to have some fun with <a href="http://linda-feinberg.pixels.com/collections/abstracts" target="_blank">abstracts</a> based on Chihuly's glass sculptures. I had taken photos of his sculptures when they were on exhibit in Boston a few years ago. These are acrylic paintings on stretched canvas, 11" X 14", by Linda H. Feinberg.<br />

If spring ever gets here to NH, we have several mural projects to work on, primarily garage doors on Litchfield Lane. I am looking forward to that and have submitted a proposal based on another fun painting I did in a Van Gogh style. There are many free videos online and I followed one to create this image.</div>

I think this would look great on Litchfield Lane. While I will be moving to Idaho at the end of the summer, this blog will continue. You can submit your information to me as usual until I move, then to our president, Stephanie Byrd at any time.</div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Stephanie Byrd painted a garage door interior at EFX Fitness in
Manchester.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; margin-bottom: 18.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 18.75pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">The image was laid out in PowerPoint, projected onto the
pre-painted door, traced, and freehand painted using indoor/outdoor black semi-gloss
paint that the customer provided. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; margin-bottom: 18.75pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 18.75pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">There are other walls in the gym that she has painted
inspirational quotes on. Some walls are brick and others are textured plaster.
The walls had also been pre-painted which made the mural very easy to complete.
Working with the client to decide size, placement, and color of the approved
artwork is part of the process to be sure of a successful outcome.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Great mural by new member James Chase. He is an instructor at NH Institute of Art and submitted a proposal for this garage door on Old Granite Street. You can check out more of his work at his website: <a href="http://neverfading.com/">http://neverfading.com/</a><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">This area memorializes the U.S. Army’s 7<sup>th</sup>
Cavalry and the Sioux and Cheyenne in one of the Indian’s last armed efforts to
preserve their way of life. Here on June 25 and 26 of 1876, 263 soldiers,
including Lt. Col. George A. Custer and attached personnel of the U.S. Army,
died fighting several thousand Lakota and Cheyenne warriors.</span></div>

This is a free concert at Victory Park (across from the City Library). The <a href="https://oldsol.org/" target="_blank">organization</a> is trying to buy or lease the building on Amherst Street to bring more art and music downtown.<br />
<br />
<em>The mission of Old Sol Music Hall is to establish, maintain, and operate a performance venue and community center aimed at leveraging the arts to create positive social and environmental impact. Old Sol Music Hall will provide a mid-size performance space and implement civic programming, including weekly pre-show service projects, in-kind donation drives, and a More Than Music Fund, which takes a portion of every ticket sold to support the work of local non-profit organizations. Through these efforts, Old Sol Music Hall will reinvest a projected $35,000+ worth of social impact into the Greater Manchester community every year.</em><br />
<em></em><br />
<em>Old Sol Music Hall will be both a cultural and civic venue in the heart of Downtown Manchester. Led by its team of Concert Corps national service members, Old Sol Music Hall will provide opportunities for patrons to give back to the local community which, in turn, will build social capital and help New Hampshire attract and retain its Millennial workforce.</em>Linda H.

Design awarded to our member and chief muralist Anthony Williams. Anthony will be painting this design on a utility box downtown. Congrats.<br />
<br />
As a group we have submitted some proposals for summer murals, but we do not have any news yet. Our treasurer, Linda Feinberg, went to a Southern NH Planning Committee meeting on the millyard and did some networking. Anthony and Linda will attend a meeting next week of <a href="https://oldsol.org/" target="_blank">Old Sol</a> and try to get some interest in more public art downtown.<br />
<br />
Member Joe Smiga received 30 copies of his new book "Blackest of Fridays". This is his 8th book and is not available in stores yet. He already sold his first one to his chiropractor. Joe is a good salesman. The novel is a thriller involving good police work and terrorism.<br />

The Friends of the Amherst Town Library welcomes both Rollande Rousselle and Eileen Belanger to exhibit their oil and acrylic paintings on the main floor of the library for the month of April. Stop in and feel the beauty both of these painters capture into their paintings. <br /><br />Eileen Belanger resides in New Boston, New Hampshire in a 1908 cider mill which houses her living space, studio, and gallery. The mill is still operational every Columbus weekend as a fundraiser for local charities. She teaches at the Cider Mill Gallery, Creative Ventures Gallery in Amherst and at E.W. Poore’s in Manchester. Eileen has gained increasing recognition for her original, detailed paintings and murals of New England scenes inspired by her passion for nature and her surroundings. Her acrylic and oil paintings may include scenes from her life in New Hampshire or a visit to Cape Cod, the Islands or abroad. Other times it is just the subject matter that stirs her creativity. Eileen is fascinated by dramatic contrasts between light and shadow and attempts to achieve a welcoming depth and clarity to her compositions. Her murals are finely detailed and she works closely with her clients to interpret their ideas in breathtaking panoramas. Eileen has painted murals throughout the East Coast in private, public and corporate venues. She has also become widely known for her animal and house portraits. Eileen has won numerous awards at New England art shows and is a member of the New Hampshire Plein Air Association. Painting on location is one of the joys of being an artist.<br /><br />Rollande Rousselle is another local artist whose passion is spending most of her time learning, looking, studying, hearing, admiring nature and then trying to put as much as she can on canvas. Painting is more important to her than bread. After Rollande successfully started growing flowers in her garden, she realized what she wanted to share with people, “I want them to see beauty all year long”. She frequently returns to the lady slippers because they are natures’s gift to us. “When people stand in front of my 'Fields of Ladies' painting and see the lady slippers, it often sends them back to a simpler more pleasant time. I was inspired to start painting ladies slippers because I love the beautiful greeting of these orchids when I take my much loved walks in the woods.” Her greatest inspirations have been from the woods in the North East area. Using oil paints and the palette knife allows Rollande the spontaneity of happy accident. “It is amazing to see a square centimeter of the painting and be able to identify more than 10 colors in the background or the floor of the forest.” She makes some of her own tools with handles as well as other things like snipped aluminum and the head of a nail to paint with. “I usually prefer to work on a board because I am afraid to get overzealous and rip a canvas with a palette knife.” Standing in total admiration in the Museum of fine Arts a few years back in front of Monet’s and Vincent’s painting has left Rollande desiring more and more to learn how to go in the direction of impressionistic painting and using no brushes has facilitated this in leaps and bound.</div>

Just a little preview of some of the proposals for the tunnel on the Piscataquog River trail. Photo above shows sketches for the tunnel by Anthony Williams. Photos and sketches below are from Stephanie Byrd. The proposals have to be approved by the mayor and alderman before we can proceed with this project.<br />

Our member, Writer Joe Smiga, has been taking photography classes and currently has an exhibit at the Hooksett Public Library. The exhibit is on the main floor across from the reference desk. There are additional photographs and paintings on exhibit on the lower level as well from other artists and photographers who take classes and workshops there.<br />
<br />
This is Joe's first large photo exhibit.The photographs were taken on a trip to the Canadian Rockies in June and show elk, mountain goats, a cute chipmunk, beautiful mountains and lakes.<br />
<br />
Several of our artists have submitted work for approval for murals to be painted on the Piscataquog Trail (in conjunction with Riverwalk Beautification Alliance). These proposals are for the spring and summer and we hope that they are approved.<br />
<br />
We are still looking for new members. You can pay your $5 annual dues online with Paypal at the top of the page. We will need additional painters for the summer projects so please consider joining us.<br />
