Feb. 2013 - Canyon Lake Art Association
 ISSUE: 2 ~ FEBRUARY 2013 NEXT MEETING: THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 7TH Hi Everyone I would like to thank Elin Pendleton for such a wonderful demonstration at our meeting. I know we all enjoyed it. Our next meeting is February 7th which means that we are 4 months closer to the “Art At The Lake” event. I hope you all are painting and getting ready for this. I received an email from Gabriel Barber saying that she is interested in doing a workshop and she has to have 10 people. So, if you are interested please let Marilyn know ASAP so we can get a good choice of dates if you are interested. Her contact info is on page 2 of this newsletter. See you at the next meeting and keep painting! Joanie Evarts ‐ President FEBRUARY ARTIST DEMONSTRATOR Reza Sepahdari was born in Arak, Iran and graduated from University of Tehran with a degree in fine arts. He was at the top of his field making movies using Clayma on and other techniques. He later moved to Greece where his works are displayed in the Athens Museum. He has also exhibited in France, Italy and Spain before moving to Canada where he lived for 12 years. There he a ended the pres gious University of Toronto as well as Sheridan college where he studied computer anima on and graphics. He then moved to Vancouver where he designed magazine covers for Common Ground. He later moved to Portland, Oregon where he had numerous exhibits. He finally moved to Southern California where he headed the Art Dept. for Mehregan from 2006‐2011 designing logos, banners and statues that are an integral part of our culture. Currently he has his own gallery on Rancho California Rd. in Temecula and makes his home in Lake Elsinore. At this me he is displaying his Black & White works at his gallery as well as his abstracts. His focus has always been peace and discovering different media do express his work. “The color of my pale e is my prose and the rhythm of my brush, my meter. I paint to capture the essence of peace that we all share when the music starts and the dance begins.” Reza Sepahdari 949‐813‐9191 art_server@yahoo.com His website is: h p://reza‐sepahdari.fineartamerica.com 1 Current Board Members & Chairs President: Joanie Everts 951‐244‐3378 sevarts400@aol.com Vice‐ President / Program Director: Marilyn Sarkisian‐Latimer 951‐246‐2435 marileosark@aol.com Secretary: Chris Fagan 951‐245‐5244 chrisfaganrealtor@verizon.net Treasurer: Lori Gundrum 951‐244‐4800 lorehjg@gmail.com Publicity Chair Vacant ~ Need a Volunteer Membership: Marjorie Wicen 951‐244‐4358 helicoptor2@verizon.net Historian Leann Kluck 951‐741‐4100 lkluck21@gmail.com Show Chair / Hospitality Joan Fakhoury 951‐347‐7043 jfworkofart@aol.com Newsletter Editor Rhonda Strickland 951‐522‐8757 ronilou55@gmail.com Reminders:

6 January Artist Demonstrator: Elin Pendleton
Photos of the Painting from Beginning to Near Completion
We had an amazing demonstration by an extraordinarily talented artist. Elin took her own basic drawing and turned it into a
near-finished painting in just under an hour. She gave our members tips & techniques on how to blend and add color, light &
dark shading in or to give our own art a realistic feel by bringing it alive.
Thank you Elin, it was an amazing experience and we truly enjoyed your presentation.
