Shot Clock: 5-Minute Artist Talks Return!

Here at The Art League we are surrounded by artists every day. We love when our gallery is renewed every month with a new set of beautiful artwork. However, you don’t have to work at The Art League to have access to the great exhibiting artists that show month after month in our gallery. If you’re anything like us, and have wondered why your favorite artists choose a certain medium, subject, or take on a piece…this is your chance!

Join exhibiting artists featured in the March “Open” exhibit for an exciting round of 5-Minute Artist Talks. Artists will talk about their process, the background behind their piece, and take questions from onlookers. Talks begin at 5:15 pm in the Gallery and be sure to stick around for our March Opening reception for the March Open exhibit and Ann Pickett’s “The Exuberance of Life” at 6:30 pm (there will be wine and cheese!). Want a sneak peek of who will be talking tomorrow? Scroll down and come prepared with your questions!

Wonder what late night snacks Dobrovolski has on stock while painting? Are we the only ones that snack and paint?

Seymour’s haunting use of black and white in this photograph is really better enjoyed closer up.

We’d love to know how danger McKnight was in trying to get this harrowingly beautiful shot.
