Qiang and "Pieces" Do lunch

Here's my painting gang, Pieces of 8 (minus 1) after an intense 3-day workshop with the wonderful Qiang Huang.  He had a free morning on Monday before his plane left Melbourne and thus he graciously joined us downtown in a coffee shop for an "art chat."  We exhausted many topics and decided to adjourn for lunch where we laughed and told stories like old friends.  It took about 10 minutes to book him again for his "next available" workshop opening so that we would have a built-in reason to practice, practice, practice.  He's promised to return and offer an "advanced" session in our area so stay tuned for details to come.  Meanwhile we will all be trying to be as accurate and as frugal with our painterly strokes as he is.  His work and his blog can be seen by clicking on his name above.
