A Tribute to Watercolor West's 50th
Multiple Artists
October 4 - December 1, 2018 This exhibit is to remind people that Watercolor West was originated in this region of Southern California. A group of painters including Milford Zornes, Rex Brandt, Joanna Mersereau, Don O'Neal and other local artists were instrumental in organizing Watercolor West. It is a reminder to all artists that it is important to support the survival and appreciation for the beauty and relevance of transparent watercolor in this day of many different mediums.

Art in Metal
Patrick Jones
October 18 - November 24, 2018
Working in copper, brass and steel , I create three-dimensional representations of organic objects or natural items, as well as two-dimensional studies of geometric patterns. My art has a practical genesis – as a young man I was temporarily employed as an ornamental iron fabricator where I was exposed to aesthetics in metal. After a change of career and a 40-year hiatus from working with metal, I took it up again in 2013 in retirement. Over the ensuing six years, I honed my techniques and became familiar with the properties and limitations of the materials and processes I use. My work has evolved through experimentation and ever-changing interest in subject matter. Through November 24, 2018

Young Artist Alcove:
Leslie Perez Chavez
October 13 - December 9, 2018
Artist statement: "My artwork consists of creating portraits with beauty, realistic form and unrealistic twists, using colored pencil or graphite. I like to express my own emotions to show a bit of my personality. Some techniques I use are layering and focusing on clean edges. Art has always been a fun way of escaping the real world and creating my own. One of my goals is to continue making art and share my knowledge with others. I will pursue my passion for art and use this gift as an opportunity to open doors."
Through December 9, 2018
