Art Association Memberships



Art, Love, and Travel, color pencils on illustration board




Dear Friends,

Yesterday was a good day for me art wise. I received the following email:

"You have been accepted into the exclusive Laguna ART Group™ by the jury. We have had over 4000 artist submissions to date and have only chosen 10% of those to be represented by the Laguna Beach Art Community (a network of ver 80 galleries) as well as on our iPhone and Android APPs. This APP is downloaded by 1000's of Collectors, Interior Designs, gallery owners as well as visitors to Laguna Beach for the Map of "Everything Art in Laguna Beach."


I am grateful and happy to be part of such a staple in the art industry.  Looking forward to visiting all 80 galleries too :)

Tomorrow is the Boehm Gallery reception and open house at Palomar College.  It's wonderful to see all the art departments exhibiting art done by students. I have several pieces up in the my art room at the college, from charcoals to paintings.  As well as two pieces at the gallery.


There is also a small section where you can purchase great ceramics, glass, jewlery, and art, outside.  And of course, free food provided by the teachers.  Michael Steirnagle will be giving a painting demonstration so I will be there :)

Join me.

Love,
Glad

First Place in Visual Arts


Self Portrait, First Place in Visual Arts, Oil on canvas




Hello Friends,

I'm thrilled to announce that this year's Award-Winning Literary Magazine, Bravura, has awarded me the first prize in Visual Arts for the self-portrait I entered in their annual contest.  It comes with a cash prize too :)


I will be attending the Gala reception in San Marcos on May 20, 2013, were I'll receive the award. Looking forward to the publication to be released.

This Saturday is art walk here in Escondido. I'm looking forward to do my regular stops. I start at the Escondido Art Association, then The Escondido Municipal Art Gallery, a quick stop by Distinction Gallery and Traditional Gallery, and the final stop at Michael Steirnagle's art studio.

I've been working on figure painting for a year now, and I'm ready to do some landscaping paintings during the summer. Stay tune for new work.

With Love,
Glad
