Shut Up & Paint is a free weekly group for painters of all skill levels. We meet on several weekdays, and some Sundays. We are a creative support group, not a critique group :)
We welcome all forms of creativity, such as painting, sculpting, writing, and photography. During meetings, we encourage you to commit 60 minutes to your own creativity, with no pressure to succeed.
We also request no unsolicited advice, and sensitivity towards others is appreciated.
LGBTQ+ are welcome. You can contribute to the group's Meetup fees if you wish, either with Pledge or at https://ko-fi.com/shutupandpaint

This is a body doubling, co-working, open studio time, because I seriously need it. Video is entirely optional.
We'll do a quick check in at 12:45 pm, then break for lunch at 1pm
Feel free to type in the chat, but otherwise MICs OFF :) (except during check in)
Hope to have some studio mates!
If you are interested, this is the prompt I'm working off of:
# “Hope” is the thing with feathers
By Emily Dickinson
“Hope” is the thing with feathers -
That perches in the soul -
And sings the tune without the words -
And never stops - at all -And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard -
And sore must be the storm -
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm -I’ve heard it in the chillest land -
And on the strangest Sea -
Yet - never - in Extremity,
It asked a crumb - of me.
