Gallery Exhibit:
Connie Matz's Oil Painting Class--Look What We've Done!
April 26 through May 5
 

From April 26 through May 5, Gualala Arts boasts the talents of Connie Matzâs Oil Painting Class in its annual exhibit entitled ãLook What Weâve Done!ä 

A self-taught artist, Connie Matz has been painting for over forty years and teaching for more than twenty-five. Her oil painting class at Gualala Arts is in its fourth year and continues to bring together different faces and talents. With a dozen in attendance, Connie encourages her students to interact with each other, combining all levels of experience with oils.  ãI put my classes together because I think that they can learn from each other.ä

Connie likens the medium of oils to that of clay in that no one piece is permanent but rather ãever-changing. This exhibit is a testament to that learning process as we witness ãart in progressionä. One can view the various stages of the creative journey and share in the glory of the final product- a piece of each studentsâ imagination.

Inspired by watching her students ãcome aliveä, Connie offers this class every Monday and Tuesday from 9am-noon.  The cost is $20 per session and is open to all levels.
