Ceramic Demo with Julie Latayan

Friday, July 11, 1-3pm

Latyan's work is inspired by French impressionists, particularly their use of color when depicting shapes and figures.

"I have a gift to create and have always stayed true to myself. We all have to be many things in this lifetime. I have had many jobs but one title I always kept is Artist. When I share my art, I share the best part of me. I hope you feel the joy!"

-Julie Latayan

Painting Demo with Shelley Hopkins

Saturday, July 12, 1-3pm

Hopkin's process involves mark making, laying down vibrant and joyful colors of paint to create contemporary still-life. The process involves continually building up layers using charcoal, acrylic, oil and scrapings until the final painting emerges.

"My art is a reflection of my surroundings and memories, creating a journey for the viewer to spark their own memories and stories."

-Shelley Hopkins
