      <title>Creative Canopy: Where ideas bloom beneath the trees (with Jennifer Claussen) (April 30, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://conroeartleague.com/resources/Pictures/Education%20Event%20Flyers/Judy%20Cook%20Education%20Images/JC.cameratree.jpeg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="131" height="175"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;img src="https://conroeartleague.com/resources/Pictures/Education%20Event%20Flyers/Judy%20Cook%20Education%20Images/Image%205-19-25%20at%207.31%20PM.jpeg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="197" height="177"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;This class is a unique experience that blends art-making with immersion in nature. &amp;nbsp;Rather than focusing solely on technique, it emphasizes mindful connection with the environment and exploration across various art mediums. &amp;nbsp;Participants will engage their senses, embrace imperfection, and use diverse materials to express themselves freely. &amp;nbsp;This process fosters healing, personal reflection, and a sense of community, nurturing the creative spirit from within. &amp;nbsp;Unlike traditional technique-based courses, this class serves as a space to replenish the inner well from which creativity flows--an ideal retreat for overcoming creative blocks or simply renewing one's energy. &amp;nbsp;It's a space where curiosity leads the way, making it ideal for both beginners and experienced artists looking to reconnect with their creativity. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;This class will be offered 3 times on 4 consecutive Thursdays. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;Jennifer is an eco-artist dedicated to creating one-of-a-kind sculptures by salvaging and transforming local natural materials--such as ceramics, glass, and metals--into meaningful works of art. Her practice is rooted in environmental consciousness, aiming to inspire others through pieces that celebrate the beauty and essence of nature. &amp;nbsp;She believes that art holds the power to create change, and she uses her creations to encourage the protection and preservation of our planet. &amp;nbsp;Her goal is to craft impactful sculptures that invite viewers to reconnect with the natural world and experience its wonder.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Holding degrees in Fine Art and Commercial Art, Brenda has earned numerous awards and is known for her distinctive approach to mixed media, where texture meets fine art.

      <title>The Dynamic Floral with Patrick Saunders (June 19, 2026)</title>

&lt;p style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;The painted floral requires a balance of spontaneity and accuracy, a perfect subject to practice adding energy to all of your paintings. Patrick will demonstrate the process of simplifying the subject and moving to finish as rapidly as possible in order to add more excitement to your painting. &amp;nbsp;Learn about choosing a subject, composition, values, color temperature, simplification, how to start, and when to stop.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;Each day will begin with a short lecture and full demonstration, followed by one-on-one instruction with students. &amp;nbsp;We will work from both cut flowers and photographs in the studio. &amp;nbsp;The class is highly tailored for each individual student. &amp;nbsp;Class size is limited, so that each student can receive the maximum amount of interaction with the instructor. &amp;nbsp;Patrick's CAL workshops ALWAYS fill up, so register quickly. &amp;nbsp;A suggested materials list will be provided prior to the class.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Holding degrees in Fine Art and Commercial Art, Brenda has earned numerous awards and is known for her distinctive approach to mixed media, where texture meets fine art.

      <title>The Dynamic Floral with Patrick Saunders (July 17, 2026)</title>

&lt;p style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;The painted floral requires a balance of spontaneity and accuracy, a perfect subject to practice adding energy to all of your paintings. Patrick will demonstrate the process of simplifying the subject and moving to finish as rapidly as possible in order to add more excitement to your painting. &amp;nbsp;Learn about choosing a subject, composition, values, color temperature, simplification, how to start, and when to stop.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;Each day will begin with a short lecture and full demonstration, followed by one-on-one instruction with students. &amp;nbsp;We will work from both cut flowers and photographs in the studio. &amp;nbsp;The class is highly tailored for each individual student. &amp;nbsp;Class size is limited, so that each student can receive the maximum amount of interaction with the instructor. &amp;nbsp;Patrick's CAL workshops ALWAYS fill up, so register quickly. &amp;nbsp;A suggested materials list will be provided prior to the class.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 27px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia, WaWebKitSavedSpanIndex_0, WaWebKitSavedSpanIndex_1, WaWebKitSavedSpanIndex_0"&gt;Step outside the lines and into the exciting world of mixed media!

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;The composition and lighting is a collaborative effort in which we all learn with and from each other. &amp;nbsp;You are encouraged to bring items that can be added to the still life. &amp;nbsp;One or two setups, depending on the number of attendees, are available so that all artists can have a good viewpoint. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;Contact Terri Harris at 936-522-7745 or email at terribearart@gmail.com. &amp;nbsp;Each month, an email is sent requesting your RSVP. &amp;nbsp;This group is free of charge.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Decisive and Intentional Painting with Dan Graziano (September 25, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 10px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://conroeartleague.com/resources/Pictures/Education%20Event%20Flyers/Judy%20Cook%20Education%20Images/Ice%20Cream%20and%20Fudge%20red%2024x18.jpeg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="95" height="124"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;img src="https://conroeartleague.com/resources/Pictures/Education%20Event%20Flyers/Judy%20Cook%20Education%20Images/central%20casting%2010x20.jpeg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="252" height="125"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;img src="https://conroeartleague.com/resources/Pictures/Education%20Event%20Flyers/Judy%20Cook%20Education%20Images/street%20skater%208x8.jpeg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="125" height="125"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 10px;" align="center"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;This three-day studio workshop will focus on painting "alla prima" (all at once) as well as developing greater skills of observation, simplification, and painting "wet on wet" to create strong "painterly" paintings. &amp;nbsp;The workshop will also discuss techniques to quickly transfer the elements of your reference to the canvas with the goal of creating an artistic painting that accurately relates the important forms of a composition rather than simply copying everything in a photograph. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;The first morning of the workshop begins with a discussion of painting basics (from materials to paint handling) and will also address the fundamentals of color, value, edges, perspective, and other "practical" elements that make a successful painting. &amp;nbsp;Each day participants will work on a series of timed painting exercises incorporating the techniques discussed while developing their skills of observation, simplification, bold brushwork, and painting in a "decisive" and "intentional" manner. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;Each morning of the workshop will include a short painting demo by Dan with an explanation of his process. &amp;nbsp;Dan will provide plenty of one-on-one individual instruction throughout each day of the workshop. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;This workshop is designed for intermediate to advanced painters in both oil and acrylic mediums; however, proficiency in basic drawing is required. &amp;nbsp;Participants will be able to choose from a wide variety of reference photos supplied by the instructor for their painting exercises.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;CLASS SIZE IS LIMITED SO REGISTER SOON!! Suggested supply list is below.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font color="#444444" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font color="#444444" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://conroeartleague.com/resources/Pictures/Education%20Event%20Flyers/Judy%20Cook%20Education%20Images/Dan%20head.jpeg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="103" height="133" align="left" style="margin: 10px;"&gt;Dan Graziano is an award winning, nationally exhibited artist whose paintings capture the hidden beauty found in the ordinary and unexpected fleeting moments of everyday life. &amp;nbsp;Incorporating dramatic light, shadow, color and perspective, his compositions feature a diversity of subjects - from a simple still life to rugged coastlines, active urban life, lively cafes and bars, small rural towns and forgotten roadside relics. &amp;nbsp;His work has been featured in numerous publications and is in the collections of private and corporate collectors throughout the world. &amp;nbsp;He also keeps an active schedule teaching workshops at galleries and art organizations throughout the nation.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#444444" face="Georgia" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;His artistic vision began taking shape in the 60's, during America's explosive political, cultural and artistic awakening.&amp;nbsp; His first formal training focused on advertising and illustration, but a career opportunity in architecture and urban planning altered his original direction.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#444444" face="Georgia" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;When he returned to painting, he was drawn to the rich complexity of the urban landscape inspired by Edward Hopper and other urbanist painters. As an accomplished blues guitarist (his other great passion), he found the city streets, time worn buildings and multiple layers of decay and repair a visual parallel to the spirit and culture of the music. &amp;nbsp;He has received formal training in the traditional techniques and principles of classical realism painting from The Florence Academy of Art.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#444444" face="Georgia" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;“In my paintings, I try to capture the hidden beauty found in the unexpected places and fleeting moments of everyday life.&amp;nbsp; I continue to be intrigued by the urban landscapes of inner cities - their active streets, time worn buildings and multiple layers of decay, renewal and adaptation - that proudly display the effects of age and use, which I see as testaments to strength, character and authenticity in contrast with modern society’s demand for newness, imitation, disposability and easy duplication.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;My work is influenced by realists such as Caravaggio, Sargent, Hopper and the three generations of Wyeths along with California painters Wayne Thiebaud and Richard Diebenkorn.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Decisive and Intentional Painting with Dan Graziano (September 26, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 10px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://conroeartleague.com/resources/Pictures/Education%20Event%20Flyers/Judy%20Cook%20Education%20Images/Ice%20Cream%20and%20Fudge%20red%2024x18.jpeg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="95" height="124"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;img src="https://conroeartleague.com/resources/Pictures/Education%20Event%20Flyers/Judy%20Cook%20Education%20Images/central%20casting%2010x20.jpeg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="252" height="125"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;img src="https://conroeartleague.com/resources/Pictures/Education%20Event%20Flyers/Judy%20Cook%20Education%20Images/street%20skater%208x8.jpeg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="125" height="125"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 10px;" align="center"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;This three-day studio workshop will focus on painting "alla prima" (all at once) as well as developing greater skills of observation, simplification, and painting "wet on wet" to create strong "painterly" paintings. &amp;nbsp;The workshop will also discuss techniques to quickly transfer the elements of your reference to the canvas with the goal of creating an artistic painting that accurately relates the important forms of a composition rather than simply copying everything in a photograph. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;The first morning of the workshop begins with a discussion of painting basics (from materials to paint handling) and will also address the fundamentals of color, value, edges, perspective, and other "practical" elements that make a successful painting. &amp;nbsp;Each day participants will work on a series of timed painting exercises incorporating the techniques discussed while developing their skills of observation, simplification, bold brushwork, and painting in a "decisive" and "intentional" manner. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;Each morning of the workshop will include a short painting demo by Dan with an explanation of his process. &amp;nbsp;Dan will provide plenty of one-on-one individual instruction throughout each day of the workshop. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;This workshop is designed for intermediate to advanced painters in both oil and acrylic mediums; however, proficiency in basic drawing is required. &amp;nbsp;Participants will be able to choose from a wide variety of reference photos supplied by the instructor for their painting exercises.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;CLASS SIZE IS LIMITED SO REGISTER SOON!! Suggested supply list is below.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font color="#444444" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font color="#444444" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://conroeartleague.com/resources/Pictures/Education%20Event%20Flyers/Judy%20Cook%20Education%20Images/Dan%20head.jpeg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="103" height="133" align="left" style="margin: 10px;"&gt;Dan Graziano is an award winning, nationally exhibited artist whose paintings capture the hidden beauty found in the ordinary and unexpected fleeting moments of everyday life. &amp;nbsp;Incorporating dramatic light, shadow, color and perspective, his compositions feature a diversity of subjects - from a simple still life to rugged coastlines, active urban life, lively cafes and bars, small rural towns and forgotten roadside relics. &amp;nbsp;His work has been featured in numerous publications and is in the collections of private and corporate collectors throughout the world. &amp;nbsp;He also keeps an active schedule teaching workshops at galleries and art organizations throughout the nation.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#444444" face="Georgia" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;His artistic vision began taking shape in the 60's, during America's explosive political, cultural and artistic awakening.&amp;nbsp; His first formal training focused on advertising and illustration, but a career opportunity in architecture and urban planning altered his original direction.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#444444" face="Georgia" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;When he returned to painting, he was drawn to the rich complexity of the urban landscape inspired by Edward Hopper and other urbanist painters. As an accomplished blues guitarist (his other great passion), he found the city streets, time worn buildings and multiple layers of decay and repair a visual parallel to the spirit and culture of the music. &amp;nbsp;He has received formal training in the traditional techniques and principles of classical realism painting from The Florence Academy of Art.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#444444" face="Georgia" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;“In my paintings, I try to capture the hidden beauty found in the unexpected places and fleeting moments of everyday life.&amp;nbsp; I continue to be intrigued by the urban landscapes of inner cities - their active streets, time worn buildings and multiple layers of decay, renewal and adaptation - that proudly display the effects of age and use, which I see as testaments to strength, character and authenticity in contrast with modern society’s demand for newness, imitation, disposability and easy duplication.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;My work is influenced by realists such as Caravaggio, Sargent, Hopper and the three generations of Wyeths along with California painters Wayne Thiebaud and Richard Diebenkorn.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Decisive and Intentional Painting with Dan Graziano (September 27, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 10px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://conroeartleague.com/resources/Pictures/Education%20Event%20Flyers/Judy%20Cook%20Education%20Images/Ice%20Cream%20and%20Fudge%20red%2024x18.jpeg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="95" height="124"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;img src="https://conroeartleague.com/resources/Pictures/Education%20Event%20Flyers/Judy%20Cook%20Education%20Images/central%20casting%2010x20.jpeg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="252" height="125"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;img src="https://conroeartleague.com/resources/Pictures/Education%20Event%20Flyers/Judy%20Cook%20Education%20Images/street%20skater%208x8.jpeg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="125" height="125"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 10px;" align="center"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;This three-day studio workshop will focus on painting "alla prima" (all at once) as well as developing greater skills of observation, simplification, and painting "wet on wet" to create strong "painterly" paintings. &amp;nbsp;The workshop will also discuss techniques to quickly transfer the elements of your reference to the canvas with the goal of creating an artistic painting that accurately relates the important forms of a composition rather than simply copying everything in a photograph. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;The first morning of the workshop begins with a discussion of painting basics (from materials to paint handling) and will also address the fundamentals of color, value, edges, perspective, and other "practical" elements that make a successful painting. &amp;nbsp;Each day participants will work on a series of timed painting exercises incorporating the techniques discussed while developing their skills of observation, simplification, bold brushwork, and painting in a "decisive" and "intentional" manner. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;Each morning of the workshop will include a short painting demo by Dan with an explanation of his process. &amp;nbsp;Dan will provide plenty of one-on-one individual instruction throughout each day of the workshop. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;This workshop is designed for intermediate to advanced painters in both oil and acrylic mediums; however, proficiency in basic drawing is required. &amp;nbsp;Participants will be able to choose from a wide variety of reference photos supplied by the instructor for their painting exercises.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;CLASS SIZE IS LIMITED SO REGISTER SOON!! Suggested supply list is below.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font color="#444444" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px; line-height: 25px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font color="#444444" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://conroeartleague.com/resources/Pictures/Education%20Event%20Flyers/Judy%20Cook%20Education%20Images/Dan%20head.jpeg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="103" height="133" align="left" style="margin: 10px;"&gt;Dan Graziano is an award winning, nationally exhibited artist whose paintings capture the hidden beauty found in the ordinary and unexpected fleeting moments of everyday life. &amp;nbsp;Incorporating dramatic light, shadow, color and perspective, his compositions feature a diversity of subjects - from a simple still life to rugged coastlines, active urban life, lively cafes and bars, small rural towns and forgotten roadside relics. &amp;nbsp;His work has been featured in numerous publications and is in the collections of private and corporate collectors throughout the world. &amp;nbsp;He also keeps an active schedule teaching workshops at galleries and art organizations throughout the nation.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#444444" face="Georgia" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;His artistic vision began taking shape in the 60's, during America's explosive political, cultural and artistic awakening.&amp;nbsp; His first formal training focused on advertising and illustration, but a career opportunity in architecture and urban planning altered his original direction.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#444444" face="Georgia" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;When he returned to painting, he was drawn to the rich complexity of the urban landscape inspired by Edward Hopper and other urbanist painters. As an accomplished blues guitarist (his other great passion), he found the city streets, time worn buildings and multiple layers of decay and repair a visual parallel to the spirit and culture of the music. &amp;nbsp;He has received formal training in the traditional techniques and principles of classical realism painting from The Florence Academy of Art.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#444444" face="Georgia" style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;“In my paintings, I try to capture the hidden beauty found in the unexpected places and fleeting moments of everyday life.&amp;nbsp; I continue to be intrigued by the urban landscapes of inner cities - their active streets, time worn buildings and multiple layers of decay, renewal and adaptation - that proudly display the effects of age and use, which I see as testaments to strength, character and authenticity in contrast with modern society’s demand for newness, imitation, disposability and easy duplication.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;My work is influenced by realists such as Caravaggio, Sargent, Hopper and the three generations of Wyeths along with California painters Wayne Thiebaud and Richard Diebenkorn.”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;Still Life Group is an open studio, no-instruction event. &amp;nbsp;Once each month, Terri Harris facilitates an opportunity for artists to practice their art-from-life skills. &amp;nbsp;All levels of skill are welcome, and any medium can be used. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;The composition and lighting is a collaborative effort in which we all learn with and from each other. &amp;nbsp;You are encouraged to bring items that can be added to the still life. &amp;nbsp;One or two setups, depending on the number of attendees, are available so that all artists can have a good viewpoint. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;Contact Terri Harris at 936-522-7745 or email at terribearart@gmail.com. &amp;nbsp;Each month, an email is sent requesting your RSVP. &amp;nbsp;This group is free of charge.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 27px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia, WaWebKitSavedSpanIndex_0, WaWebKitSavedSpanIndex_1, WaWebKitSavedSpanIndex_0"&gt;Step outside the lines and into the exciting world of mixed media!

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;The composition and lighting is a collaborative effort in which we all learn with and from each other. &amp;nbsp;You are encouraged to bring items that can be added to the still life. &amp;nbsp;One or two setups, depending on the number of attendees, are available so that all artists can have a good viewpoint. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;Contact Terri Harris at 936-522-7745 or email at terribearart@gmail.com. &amp;nbsp;Each month, an email is sent requesting your RSVP. &amp;nbsp;This group is free of charge.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
