Wet Paint owner Beth Bergman will be speaking on watercolor paints. She will be discussing the difference in qualities, relationship of quality to price, student vs. professional color lines, and pigment qualities such as light fastness and granulation. She will be bringing different paints for us to try out, so bring a water container and brushes. If you have a specific question, you can email it to Kathi Reeves at
gramkat@charter.net and she will forward it to Beth.
The easiest parking is to drive south down Cambridge St. the side street between Wet Paint and Ace Hardware, for a block and a half and turn left into the Macalester parking lot. There are stairs to go up to the door between the Art Department and the Music Department. We will be in
the Art Department. There will be signage to direct us to the correct room.
