Fall Art Events and Pastel Art Classes

Even though it doesn't FEEL like fall, you can feel the chill of the air conditioner as you enjoy my Fall Art Exhibits.

You are cordially invited to visit the Candlelight Coffee House and Wine Bar at 3011 N. St. Mary's St.  What a great place to unwind!  The cozy atmosphere invites you to relax and enjoy the art.  I have 21 pieces on exhibit, all are for sale at very reasonable prices.  Among them is Canyon Twilight Blue, a painting of the Grand Canyon at twilight (it really does turn a misty blue).  This painting was juried into the Arts for the Parks National Competition and toured to different galleries across the nation.  Also, you will see Dance of the Cactus Flowers which placed 2nd in Show at the Texas Pastel Society's National Juried Show in 2012.  As your eyes travel from flower to flower, it reminded me of a dance, hence the name. Exhibit will be up September and October. Open daily except Mondays.

Or do you want to build on your pastel painting skills?  Then join me Tuesday mornings 10-12noon at the Hobby Lobby, Bandera @ Huebner for art class.  I'm in my 11th year of teaching at Hobby Lobby.  You will learn composition, values, color harmony, techniques, how to frame, much more plus enjoy the company of fellow artists.  Class is $50 for 4 weeks.(one class per week).  If you miss a class, you may make it up within 2 months. Beginners to Advanced. For a list of my Awards and Honors , click on Lopez Art Venture Gallery under My Blog List.
