At its October meeting, the Hamden Art League is pleased to host a program featuring artist and teacher John Massimino as he shares his experience on how to make a good painting better. Using artwork from those who registered in advance for this opportunity, John will give individualized suggestions on how to improve, finish or take work in another direction for the benefit of the entire audience.
