SUMMARY:2nd Friday ArtAbout reception: Lorie Topinka
DESCRIPTION:Here’s To The Memories From San Miguel de Allende\nLorie Topinka\nWatercolor\nJanuary 6 to January 31\n2nd Friday ArtAbout Reception: January 9\, 5:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.\nLogos Books\, 513 Second Street\, Davis\, CA\, 95616 \nSan Miguel de Allende (Guanajuato\, Mexico) is a magical place and it didn’t take long for Lorie Topinka to fall under its spell after moving there in 2012. While the town of San Miguel is a world class tourist attraction\, the enduring magic for her was in the surrounding countryside. For many years she explored the countryside with paint brush in hand and focused on the abundant capillas (chapels) and historic ruins (haciendas\, dams\, bridges) in the area. \nOur exhibit features paintings from these books and paintings from Topinka’s private collection highlighting the people and festivals of San Miguel de Allende.\n– The Capillas of San Miguel de Allende: A Legacy of Faith\n– Traveling the Back Roads of San Miguel: Snippets of Paintable History \n“As a watercolor artist\, I am drawn to bold colors and iconic images. Whenever I am painting\, I get lost for a time in the looking and seeing. There is no time\, nor distance\, nor separation between me and the object or scene. This creative process is joyful and I try to represent\, with color\, this joy.” \nContact Topinka about her work and to purchase pieces at topinka.lorie@gmail.com. You can purchase her books at Amazon.com. \nMeet Lorie Topinka at her 2nd Friday ArtAbout reception on January 9 from 5:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Light refreshments will be served.

SUMMARY:2nd Friday ArtAbout at the Pence Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Pence Gallery for our 2nd Friday ArtAbout reception on January 9\, 6-9 PM. Enjoy browsing multiple art exhibits\, complimentary wine\, and an art-themed scavenger hunt. Free admission! \nMaryann Steinert-Foley & Diane Williams: The Realm of Possibility | Dec. 12 – Feb. 1\nDiane Williams and Maryann Steinert-Foley’s exhibit explores the persistence\, generosity\, and unseen forces that sustain both nature and humanity. View layered mixed-media paintings by Williams and sculptural works by Steinert-Foley. \nCharlene Will: Here for a While | Jan. 9 – Feb. 28\nView a solo exhibit by Charlene Will\, the recipient of the 2025 Pence Gallery Emerging Artist Award. Her work is rooted in a reverence for nature. Working with oils on canvas\, she uses traditional and self-taught brushwork\, glazes\, and the removal of layers to reveal the ephemeral qualities of light and color found in various natural ecosystems. \nWorn | Jan. 9 – Feb. 8\nClothing that we wear often reflects our personal identity\, our culture\, or both. Participating artists in Worn explore this theme\, illustrating how clothing is a large part of how we see ourselves and how ordinary garments can hold memories and meaning. \nMaris Kaplan: Amateur | Jan. 9 – Feb. 18\nWith a focus on sustainability\, Maris Kaplan’s work often incorporates secondhand materials such as thrifted fabric\, upcycled clothing\, and found objects. On display along the stairway\, this series showcases experimentation with new techniques and materials\, embracing wobbly lines\, crooked stitches\, unexpected shapes\, and random color combinations. \nScavenger Hunt: Join us for a fun\, art-themed scavenger hunt at the Pence during the 2nd Friday ArtAbout. Complete all of the clues by exploring our exhibits for the chance to win a special prize. \n— \nVisit the Pence and other venues in Downtown Davis for the 2nd Friday ArtAbout artwalk. We will have printed ArtAbout guides available that week.
