“My delight in the environment, model or interior landscape being capturing is felt through the nuances of light and color. I’ve cultivated through a passionate pursuit of working from life a technique that portrays form accurately. You recognize it and take in the commonality of the scene and feel it through your own story. It is a sweet circle shared.”
Library Paint Night
Everyone had a great time creating art together at Kingwood Public Library. We look forward to doing this again!

Library Art Changeout – February 21
We will be changing out the artwork on display on the upstairs wall at Kingwood Public Library on Friday, February 21 at 11:00 a.m. If you have art there, come prepared to bring it home with you and/or replace it with other pieces. If you are a paid member who has helped us with anything in the past (helping hang the art counts), feel free to bring some of your work to share with the public. It should be ready to hang, with picture wire.
