OCTOBER 5TH 2010

Through diversified techniques and various media, I try to capture the feelings my subjects inspire. Preferring the experience of outdoor painting, compositions primarily include natural landscapes and florals in a fresh spontaneous approach. The mystery of the work goes beyond the mere duplication of the image to include spontaneous accidents, drips of paint of or an instinctive gesture with a brush. |
| Most of my art education was through workshops with a wide variety of instructors. Several classes were taken over the years at Bakersfield College. The first class was 27 years ago, an adult education course at the local high school. Art is a continuing exploration of techniques and how to use them to express our views of the world around us. .....Kathy Miller |

JOHN BARNARD
“There is so much to paint. I get up in the morning and can hardly wait to start. I am not a formula painter. I don't worry about style. I have fun. Painting is different from writing—writing is an intellectual thing. Painting for me is spontaneous. All that stuff is in there—I just let it flow out and don't worry about it.
For me watercolor is a happy, joyous medium. The colors are clean, transparent, flowing and bright. The paper is beautiful, so I let it show and sparkle. Too much detailed drawing can stifle the imagination. I want you to see the brush strokes—even the drips. I want you to know how I feel about the painting and to see the subject in a new and different way. It's not enough to be technically good; a painting has to have emotion in it.
Painting is an addiction. I paint every day. If I don't paint I go crazy. Art is important.”

MARSHA REBSTOCK
Phyllis Case-Bennett, master Chinese brush artist was teaching workshops at Cuesta College, and I became a regular there, learning what impact a flick of the brush can have. Tony Couch, for 7 years, drilled me in the principals of design, and Mel Stabin, a painter who paints with tremendous heart, inspired me to become a “loose” woman. Henry Fukuhara’s line: “Show me the shape!” is one I think about every time I paint. And, of course, John Barnard, whose workshops and style brings it all home for me, in respect to getting to the mood and essence of whatever it is you are trying to capture. |

I always knew I wanted to be an artist. During high school, I took classes at Otis and Chouinard Art Institutes in Los Angeles. As an art major at the University of Arizona and Mexico City College, I studied painting, sculpture and printmaking. I moved to New York City, painted and studied at the Art Students League, the School of Visual Arts and the New School for Social Research. I graduated from Columbia University in 1963 with a Master of Fine Arts degree in Painting. I moved with my family to the Central Coast of California in 1977 and continued my art career. I have w EricSchofield orked in printmaking, papermaking, fiber arts and sculpture but have always returned to drawing and painting. I have had several important solo shows, exhibited in numerous galleries and my artwork is represented in private collections across the country. |

DONALD ARCHER
May 4th 2010, 7 pm
 |
During the forty years that Donald Archer has been painting, the landscape has remained the basis of his work.
While the paintings begin with the landscape - in particular, the landscape and coast of California - design and feeling are truly the subject. The space and form of the landscape convey feelings and ideas that go beyond mere appearances.
The experience, the expression, the "feel" rather than description is what interests him. Energy, order, serenity, harmony - what the image evokes, rather than what it represents - is its raison d'etre.
|
Donald Archer is known for his mastery of technique and composition. His watermedia technique is unique. He avoids the rigidity of traditional approaches, combining tempera - and sometimes collage - with transparent watercolor.
Because Archer layers washes - often as many as ten or more - and because he uses richly saturated pigments, his paintings have the density, intensity, and solidity that one normally associates with oil paintings or acrylics. They have a presence that is unforgettable. |
