Watercolor Groups, are you there?
Are there any watercolor groups that meet on a routine basis, in the Lewisville area?

Art Talk
Don Van Radke’s Art Talk
Last March 6, 7 p.m. at the VAL Gallery, Don Van Radke talked about the history behind figure painting, starting with the Altamira cave paintings, followed by a discussion on how that history relates to his work, and his work in general.
Don has been teaching painting and drawing courses at the Texas Women’s University since 1984. He earned his master’s and bachelor’s degrees of fine art in painting from University of North Texas. Don previously worked in oils, but uses acrylics exclusively at this time.

I wish to pursue, art…
“I am a current student at Lewisville High school going into my senior year and I am looking for opportunities in the career field I wish to pursue, art. More specifically I wish to major in art history and education and to one day become a curator. I was hoping that VAL would be able to assist me by not only letting me become a member, but to also allow me to help them by volunteering to work at the gallery whenever needed. I am having one difficulty with membership, I do not know where I might find an application. If someone in the organization could be so kind as to help me with acquiring an application and contacting me for volunteer opportunities wherever I am needed. Thank you so much for your time!” — Sara
