Happy Holidays!

You are invited to the  Artists’ Cooperative Gallery’s all-member holiday show, “12 Below”, which runs Nov. 25 to Dec. 30, 2014. The reception is on December 5, 2014 from 6-9 p.m. The gallery expands its hours during the season, staying open late on Thursdays. Holiday hours between Thanksgiving and Christmas are noon to 6 p.m. Sunday, Tuesday and Wednesday; 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Also, the gallery will be open Thanksgiving night as part of the Holiday Lights Festival from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Nov. 27. 

The only limitation for this show was the painting or sculpture couldn't be larger that 12” x 12”. I did a total of twelve new paintings for the show ranging is size from 6”x8” to 12”x12”. They are all Omaha signs and were a blast to paint. Go to my website to see more paintings www.katrinamethotswanson.com.

I was invited to be a “Painting Mentor” for the Joslyn Art Museums, Kent Bellows Mentoring Program. I was matched with four high school students at the Kent Bellows Studio at 33rd and Leavenworth. I encourage students in their painting practice, help them with technical skills and teach them how to build a portfolio. It has been a great experience and I have learned a lot about these students and teaching.

Check out Joslyn’s website for more information about this program. https://www.joslyn.org/education/kent-bellows-mentoring-program/programs/

"The Bartender" is a painting I worked on during my mentoring time. You are encouraged to bring in your own paintings to work on during class.
