DCAL Artist Demonstrations Series

Artwork by Marjory Allingham.

Door County Art League (DCAL) artist Marjory Allingham will be demonstrating Bauernmalerei during business hours on Saturday, July 19 at the Gallery of the Door County Art League, located at the back of the Top of the Hill Shops, Highway 42 and County F on Spring Road in Fish Creek.

Allingham has been practicing Bauernmalerei – folk painting that originated in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland – since1976. She uses acrylic paints to decorate wooden objects, including furniture, doors, kitchen cupboards, mantelpieces, and ceiling beams.

Fellow league artist Beverly Hart Branson will also be demonstrating on July 19. Branson enjoys taking photos and referring to them as she works with watercolor, ink, pencil, oil, and acrylic.

On Monday, July 21, league artist Penny Pfister will be demonstrating her watercolor techniques. Her subjects are often Door County flowers and fruits depicted in bright, cheerful colors.

Gallery manager Jane Delcarson plans to have a number of demonstrations by League artists at the gallery throughout the season. Upcoming artists working in watercolor, oil, acrylic, and pastels include Sally Everhardus, Audrey Off, Sally Berner and Pat Olson.

All types of original art produced by 38 League members are on display and available for sale at the gallery. Business hours are Thursday through Monday, 10 am – 5 pm.
