PSST critique sessions.
PSST member artists in the general Fort Bend area met August 14 and October 16, 2017 to initiate a trial run in this new benefit for members. The purpose is to provide positive, constructive comments on what will make a painting better. The artist explains the intent of the painting, light direction, and problem areas. The group is asked to consider whether intent and focal point were achieved, success in technique, color, value, and shapes. The critique is of the painting, and not the painter. With the success of the Fort Bend group as a guide, PSST would like to create small, community based critique groups for PSST members. If you are interested in hosting one, please email [email protected]. Carolyn has a Google map showing locations of all members throughout Houston.

We have a critique group that meets at one of the galleries once a month here in Alpine TX and this group is very helpful. Members bring paintings they are currently working on, paintings they have had problems with or paintings they feel need something but can't figure out what that 'something' is. The artist can take the constructive comments and either use them or not. Some attend just to learn more about art and don't bring any paintings at all. It's been a good group with the attendance growing.
