Each week three friends gather to paint – here is their story and paintings
Rose Rodio (Webster, MA)
22 years ago, my friend, Mary Lu convinced me to take an acrylic painting class. When the class ended, we decided to get together once a week to paint. Several years ago, Bernie joined us and I gained a painting buddy and a friend. We critique each other’s paintings and enjoy each other’s company to a glass of wine and background music.
Mary Lu Garrow (Oxford, MA)
I have enjoyed painting for over twenty years. The medium I use is acrylic, and my themes are varied and inspire joy in me. For me painting is a weekly get together with friends. It is both social and tranquil. It allows me to become immersed in shaping, blending and realizing contentment with my finished painting.
Bernie Meade (Southbridge, MA)
Each week, I join my good friends in the creativity of painting. Upon returning to MA to live after retirement, I also returned to painting after more than thirty years. Rose and Mary Lu have taught me a lot through their unique talents. My favorite thing to paint is flowers and it is on my bucket list to become a botanical illustrator. Life is joy each week in our painting group.
