Upcoming exhibition of instructor's paintings and drawings

I will be showing a number of my drawings and paintings in an exhibition at the Figurehead Gallery in Livermore in August 2012.   The show is entitled "Figures and Faces" and includes 4 -5 nationally and internationally respected artists.  Please plan to stop by in August to see the show.  I will post further details about the exhibition closer to the time.

Art school and Instructor News

Art and art history classes have started at the Robert Livermore Community Center and run until the end of July 2012.  We had a good turnout for the class - almost completely full.  The classes are for younger school-aged students, and teach various styles and techniques as well as famous artists from the history of art.  Students make an artwork in the style they have learned about.  So far we have done Egyptian art and Impressionism.

"about the INDA

The International Drawing Annual publication was conceived as an extension of Manifest's Drawing Center mission to promote, feature, and explore drawing as a rich and culturally significant art form.

The goal of the International Drawing Annual is to support the recognition, documentation, and publication of excellent, current, and relevant works of drawing from around the world.

This supplemental resource website offers biographical information and artist's statements for each of the artists included in each annual volume of the exhibition-in-print. One detail image from each artist is also provided for reference relative to their information."  from ManifestGallery.org
