Virtual Salon 2010 Versailles – Thursday

by Rebecca E. Parsons

a master's work station

Paris in April is magical. This week Versailles is touched with the magic from the brushes of masters…master decorative artisans. The best of the best have gathered for the annual conclave of artisans and craftsmen called The international Decorative Painters Salon. Sunday we offer a chat with the masters on Artistically Speaking/Cre8tive Compass Radio – 6:30 PM EDT. We have members directly from Versailles to tell you about their experiences. Don’t miss it.

AS/C8C will be broadcasting from Salon in Versailles via Skype. Nicola and Leslie Vigini are coordinating this for us and we have spoken with several members for the broadcast. There are pre-recorded segments with several members and Jean Luc Sable, the host. It will be as live as we can make it because of the time difference. We will also have photos on the blog and magazine of member panels and the progress of the collaborative work.

Here are scenes from Thursday…the first full day of sharing.
