Artist of the month.
This outreach opportunity enables artists, near and far, to share their craft with the local community through our non-profit creative arts center and gallery. Sponsored by VECCA, the Artist of the Month shares a solo or group art exhibition for one month at a time. VECCA is particularly interested in promoting non-member artists; as well as emerging artists of all age and medium. Take a look at up and coming shows.

SEPTEMBER ARTIST OF THE MONTH: "Autumn Colors: Leaf Portraits & Watercolor Collages" by Theresa Markiw
Markiw shares: I have been making art since I could hold a crayon. It started with clouds, sunflowers, and checkerboard alligators, and grew from there... From children I was strongly influenced by nature and the art traditions of my Ukrainian heritage - the rich colors and intricate designs of embroideries, woodcarvings, decorated Easter eggs, and Byzantine icons. Years of traveling and living abroad in Europe, the Far East, and Eurasia further expanded my aesthetic understanding and artistic vocabulary. My art combines a love of nature and simple objects with the play of color, pattern, and form to express feelings and ideas." Meet Theresa Markiw at the Opening Reception on September 7, 5-7 p.m. and enjoy her work throughout September. |

All AOM artists use this as the main space for exhibiting their artwork. There is a shelf that allows for business cards, an artist bio with show description, and a sign-in book for visitors. If you have notecards or small artwork on easels, this space can also be used for those creations. In addition, VECCA offers an art rack that can be used for prints.
