Anthony Raffalovich Demo

Saturday, June 17, 1-3pm

It is may attempt to explore an imaginary group of creatures finding their way in a new world. Through color, texture, form, materials, and expressions, these beings discover the mystery of nature and gather the elements they find along the path to personal fulfillment.

Debra Nadelhoffer Demo

Saturday, July 8, 1-3pm

Plein air painting demands simplification as I employ all my artistic skills to create an honest interpretation of the gestures, rhythms, atmosphere, light and colors in the landscape. Seeing and recording the underlying abstraction of a scene remains a challenge every time I step up to the easel.

Pat Snyder Demo

Saturday, August 19, 1-3pm

As the painting begins to take form, I may become aware of my unconscious moving to the conscious – a headline from the news, patterns from clothing I wore when I was younger, the colors of the fruits and vegetables I saw at the produce stand. I step back and observe the feelings and emotions the painting provokes.

Jay Pfeil Etching Demo

Saturday, September 2, 1-4pm

Jay Pfeil enjoys working with multiple plates, which give her etchings a wide range of colors.  Each of her prints is an original: hand-pulled, signed and numbered in limited editions. Jay is most inspired by long hikes through the mountains, where weeds, wildflowers, and other botanicals are found in natural abundance.
