This is the first edition of my on line newsletter, which I am hoping will be informative to you concerning the various art events and happenings which
I am involved in. Also, I will be sharing paintings that are brand new or
still wet and on the easel. I intend to improve the look of this newsletter
over time so please be patient as it is, like my paintings a "work-in-
progress".
Well, the first bit of news is my One-Man exhibition at Fermi Lab Art
Gallery ended last Monday. The show had great attendence numbers
and a demo I did landed me a faculty position with "The Fine Line
Creative Center" in St. Charles, Illinois. I had a great time attending
a concert by the great classical guitarist Fareed Haque which was
held in the gallery while my paintings were on view. There was also
a nice article based on an interview I did which was published in the
Fermi Lab newsletter, and on their website. I want to thank Georgia
Schwender the gallery director for all the work she did making the
exhibition such a success.
The above pictures are of the painting demo. Some of the audience were some of the top art students from Geneva High School and they kept me on my toes with their really sharp questions.
Upcoming NewsAs mentioned I have joined The Fine Line as an oil painting instructor. I am looking forward to "passing it on". I hope I can benefit the students that sign up for my class so they can learn the basics of painting and use them to have either an enjoyable past time or possibly a career as a fine artist. If you are interested in the classes you can contact me or the Fine Line and I will make sure you get the materials you need to register. The classes will not be until summer as the Winter/Spring catalog and schedule were already in place.
There will also be a faculty art exhibition "Diverse Statements II" running from February 25 thru April 9, 2011 at the Fine Line. It should be an interesting and diverse show.
