For many artists, that first stroke of color on a blank paper is difficult to make...If you know that feeling, the Bethel Art Guild March meeting will be of special interest to you. The speaker for the March meeting is award-winning artist Mary Culbertson-Stark.
Since 1984, Mary has exhibited in Spain, China, Bulgaria, Japan, Canada and the USA. Also, she has had 29 solo shows in Pittsburgh. In the area, Mary’s work has been shown in the Carnegie, Andy Warhol and Westmoreland Museums. Her work is included in over 350 private and public collections worldwide, and now she will be showing some of her work right here in our community.
Mary is a longtime resident of our area, and she taught for 35 years in the Bethel Park School district. She holds a bachelor’s degree in fine arts and a master’s degree in art education. She will be giving our members an overview of the evolution of her work and then talk about how she generates and develops a piece of art. She will bring samples of her work and do a demonstration of a few techniques she uses to initiate a painting.
We will meet at 12:30 p.m. on Thursday, March 3, 2016. The meeting is held at the Bethel Park Community Center, 5151 Park Ave., Bethel Park. The agenda is a brief business meeting, followed by a light lunch and then our guest speaker. All those interested in art, armature and professional artists, and all our members are welcome. Hope to see you there!
