FAA announces featured artist demonstrator for September

FALLBROOK – The guest artist for Fallbrook Art Association’s Sept. 11 meeting (and the Sept. 14 workshop) will be Catherine Grawin, a native Californian. She is an oil painter of landscape, still life and abstract work. A true colorist, her bold and loose brushwork is her signature style that appeals to collectors in the US and abroad.

A teacher of plein air painting and painting alla prima at UCSD Extension, La Jolla Athenaeum and privately, she recently won a first place and two second place awards in oils at the 2014 Del Mar Fair.

The Fallbrook Art Association general meetings are held at the Fallbrook School of the Arts, at 310 E. Alvarado, and are open to the public.

At 5:30 p.m., FAA members are welcome to bring in one or two “paintings in progress” for a session with the featured artist demonstrator who will give suggestions for possible improvements. Refreshments will be served at 6:15 p.m., before a brief general meeting at 6:30 p.m., followed by the demonstration, which ends at 8 p.m. Each demonstrator offers a workshop the following Sunday at the same location.
