Surpassing Gomez is an art subject challenge group in Missoula, Montana. We will be meeting every two weeks, times and places will be posted here as well as current challenge subjects.
Feel free to jump in and join us at any time! The more diverse the group, the more fun and interesting it will be! This group is for sparking creativity, inspiration, and thought around things we may not otherwise approach. And then getting together as a group to present and discuss our pieces, and also to see how many different ways the same subject was approached. Artists, photographers, writers, crafters, and so forth - all are welcome!!
What is with the name Surpassing Gomez you might be wondering? The original post to test for interest in the group was posted on the craigslist artist page and the "captcha" phrase for that post was "surpassing gomez." With the nature of this group I liked the idea and symbolism.
The purpose of pursuing and participating in a group like this to stimulate our minds and creativity, to grow in whatever medium we are working in, or exploring beyond our comfort zones. Essentially the idea is to "surpass" the current state of creativity we are in, constantly learning, growing, and improving.

Every other Sunday? What about when that falls on the 3rd Sunday of the month? It's DR. SKETCHY after all!
ReplyDeleteMaybe the meeting on those Sundays consists of Dr. Sketchy attendance, then a meeting elsewhere? (or beforehand?)
Good point! We will have to figure how to work around that because I for one don't want to miss out on another one!
ReplyDeleteSunday's meeting was really interesting but looks like for people with a life, two weeks is not quite enough to present a finished project. Can we have another challenge but stay with the fire challenge until we are individually ready to go onto the next. The input on my project was interesting and I would like to try some ideas given to me.
