Madeleine Avirov will demonstrate watercolor painting at the April 18 meeting of the Santa Clarita Artists Association.
This event is free, open to the public and meets at 6:30 pm at Barnes & Noble, 23630 Valencia Blvd.
Art teacher, writer and award winning painter, Avirov said, “I fell in love first with watercolor and then with the rigor of Old-Master oil techniques, but I’m not strictly a realist. I build up the surface of the canvas transparently—in dozens of layers in some places, in others abrading or letting the ground show through. I also lay down patches of color to build form architecturally.”
She received numerous grants and awards. Her art is on exhibit throughout the US, with art in public and private collections. She taught at Chouinard School of Art, Los Angeles, and the Art League, Oak Park, Illinois, among others.
“A mix of realism, surrealism, expressionism—my work is grounded in and is moving more and more toward abstraction, even imageless-ness. It is an abstract, inward movement, but one that carries with it the beloved things of the world.” View her art on: http://madeleineavirov.com.
Come early, standing room only by 6:30. See www.SantaClaritaArtists.org.
