Who is the Best Copy Cat in the Gallery Calaveras?
What could be more exciting and creative for both artist and art collector than to see the imagery created by copying someone else’s work? Calaveras artists were given the challenge to re-create in their own fashion works of art from one of three, two of three, or three of three photos taken by Ed Cline, CCAC Board President. Cline’s images that they are to interpret are a white fence and garden, a wooded forest, or a basket of fresh, yummy vegetables....
The gallery show, Copy Cats, opens Saturday, January 19 with a reception from 1-3pm. The show ends Saturday, February 23. Gallery Calaveras is located in the historic Odd Fellows and Masons building at 22 N Main Street, San Andreas. Gallery hours are Monday through Friday, 9:00am – 4:00pm and Saturday 11:00am to 3:00pm.
Artists who have committed by press time include Lori Kelly, Pete Kelly, Marilyn Hinsdale, Sumiko Mancinelli, Ann Nancy Macomber, Ruth Morrow, Ken Winebrenner, Margaret Roberts, Maren Sampson, Cate Culver, Marilou Cloudwalker, Helen Schofield, Jane Lucas, Antoinette May, Shay Baker, Susie Hoffman and Judy Morgan. Others will also be stepping forward with their copy cat imagery creation by the opening date. Gallery Group artist and volunteer Pat Miltimore once said, “Creative people see that same thing differently and that is why art is so expansive”. So, in other words expect a wide interpretation of the white fence, wooded forest, and veggies.
The not-for-profit Calaveras Arts Council operates the Gallery Calaveras from 22 Main Street in San Andreas. The gallery offers free parking both in front and in back and is handicapped accessible. The next show is ArtSpirit, the high school art show. It runs from March 9 through April 20. For more information, phone the Calaveras Arts Council at (209)754-1774 or visit www.calaverasarts.org.
