JO REIMER: Easter

Easter

All 10 of the most recent Sermon Notes were installed in the Worship Center of my church in time for Easter. In these photos you can get an idea of how they look in the room. There are 5 pieces hanging on each side with one, Victorious, featured at the side front above a small side stage, very well lit by spots below and above. This was the topic of the Easter sermon. 3 other pieces on each side were also lit by a "slit spot" but the technician wasn't able to light all of them at this time.

The artwork added much needed color to an otherwise drab room.

Art Tip: brush cleaning

As I work with acrylic medium for glue or with acrylic paints I stand my brushes in a bucket of water on my work table and give them a soap and water cleanup every day or so. But eventually my brushes get gunky and sometimes I forget to clean them. That's when I clean them with Murphy's Oil Soap. I keep an inch of MOS mixed 1:1 with water in a tall plastic tub (Feta from Costco) and put caked brushes in that solution overnight. By the next day the soap has softened the brush and with a bit of elbow grease I can get the brushes back to useable. This also works for brushes used with oil paint. I gave up using oils but wanted to save those good brushes and Murphy's Oil Soap came to the rescue. Get it at the grocery store.
