President’s Message
Line: As you will see, tango in particular has beautiful lines.
Shape: In tango there is the gancho, boleo, secada, barrida, colgada, ocho,
parada and volcada, to name a few.
Color: The costumes in dance are works of art in their own right: Colorful,
flowing, beautiful.
Balance: One of the critical skills of a good dancer is their ability to turn on
one foot and perform other moves without relying upon their partner for
support.
Rhythm: Well, if you can’t keep rhythm with the music, dancing may not be
for you!
Space: Correct spacing is critical. Too close to your partner or another
couple and you bump into each other. Too far from your partner and you
lose connection.
Variety: Nobody wants to see or even dance the same moves all night.
Followers and audiences enjoy being surprised.
Form: Posture is critical. Lunges must have only one leg bent or the dancer
looks like they are squatting. Toes should point to elongate the legs.
Unity and Harmony: The couple needs to move together as one unit.
Contrast: Varity of speed, intensity, and height improve the dance quality.
Area of interest: Both partners need to look at and have their upper bodies
“flashlight” toward each other, not only for appearances, but to keep a
connection with one another in order to dance in unity.
UWS Paint Spot September/October 2018
I have always wanted to marry my
two loves together: Dance and Art.
For our September meeting I invited
my Argentine Tango friends to come
and perform for UWS. This is a photo
op, or if you are a fast sketcher, a
drawing and or painting opportunity.
I feel that performing arts and visual
arts have all the same elements. So
putting the two together is very
exciting. Here is such a list of art
elements and how I see them as they
pertain to Argentine tango.
As Anne of Green Gables might say,
both art and dance are very
“romantical”. I hope this experiment
goes well and that both dancers and
artists have a great experience!

October Member Meeting
UWS partnered with Red Butte Gardens
this summer for a marvelous meld of
botanical inspiration. 85 entries from 57
artists, some entering a show for their first
time, transformed the foyer with color and
style. Since Red Butte Gardens is a
popular attraction in Salt Lake City,
visitation to the UWS show was high,
raising awareness of UWS, watercolor as
a medium and resulting in 36 sales
overall. Thanks to all who helped make it
happen and all who participated in this
exciting event!

A closer look reveals subtlety in color, poetic impressions, and serene
beauty. “I am very conscious of my edges and never say ‘too much’. I think
it is important to leave some mystery, some room for imagination. When
you look at the finished piece, it is remarkable what you think you see that
is not really there! For me, that is one of the most beautiful things about
painting in watercolor!” Conveying atmosphere is Frank’s specialty. In fact,
it is the basis of all his work and teaching. Frank currently focuses on
watercolor and oils.

Definitely a painter’s painter, Frank Eber works in a direct,
loose style influenced by the Old World masters. Typical in his art
are color mixes and light that evoke nostalgia while remaining
absolutely in the present. Frank’s watercolor workshops reach
beyond technique, encouraging individual expression and
observing the elusive balance of forces that create beauty in
painting. The techniques you will learn in Frank’s workshops
transcend the watercolor medium, as they, acrylics, tempera,
pastels.
Frank Eber Workshop
Grand by Frank Eber
ARTIST’S STATEMENT:
"Painting should go deeper than copying nature as it is. It should be a personal response and a characterization of
what is before us and in harmony with it. I try to understand a scene, but not intellectually. I can paint it how it is, that’s
easy. The interpretation of the thing that’s underneath–what gives it life–I’d like to find. The energy that makes it. In
essence I am trying to paint what cannot be painted.”
Please joins us for our Fall Workshop with a Nationally Known Artist. Franks Ebers personal style and eagerness to
work with each student is certain to create a memorable workshop experience.
Questions: Linda Flannery, workshop coordinator.

What a wonderful experience to step out of our
comfort zone to try something new; to push the
envelope a little bit. Reaching into new mediums
apart from watercolor has allowed me to continue
working on the principles of color, value choice, and
composition while also helping me see things in a
new way. I’ve found it interesting that letting myself
take turns away from watercolor has actually
enhanced my experience as both a watercolorist
and overall artist.
Oh, all of these thoughts being shared by someone

Greetings from Cache Valley!
This year I am looking forward to becoming
more acquainted with each other as we push
ourselves to try a little harder and be a little

creative path. That’s what drew me to this

me here now—finding this bond with other
people of such diverse backgrounds and
training as we all try to grow wherever we
are. It is an honor to be on this path with you
all!
