Mike Hernandez.5The Santa Clarita Artists Association has rescheduled an appearance by artist Mike Hernandez. Hernandez had canceled his Aug. 21 appearance and will now appear on Monday, Sept. 18 at the SCAA’s new monthly meeting location, Barnes and Noble Booksellers.

Hernandez is a plein air painter skilled in gouache, oil and acrylic.

Join SCAA  Monday, Sept. 18 at the new location, Barnes and Noble Booksellers, 23630 Valencia Blvd., Santa Clarita, CA 91355, for the monthly meeting free to the public from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.

A native Angeleno, Hernandez’s works have been featured in several on-line publications as well as galleries. His process began as a young child, painting still life images, influenced by the likes of Edgar Payne, Sorolla and Franz Biscoff.

Hernandez explored the foundations of color and light in the outdoors, striving to find the beauty in the ordinary. With a palette that resides at the crossroads between industrial and landscapes, he finds inspiration anywhere from the Eastern Sierra range to the muddy concrete banks of the Los Angeles River.

He studied at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, graduating with a B.A. in 1998. Hernandez was a Production Designer and Art Director as well as a concept artist at Dreamworks Animation and worked on such films as Shrek, How to train your Dragon, Turbo, Penguins of Madagascar and many other films.

Hernandez is also a member of a limited group of the finest painters in the United States called PAPA as well as a nation-wide sought-after workshop instructor. His works can be found in several private collections around the world.
