"My inspiration comes from the beauty I see in all of God's Creation." - Artist Jose Barba
"From the beautiful colors of the sun rising over the mountains in the morning to the light shining through a translucent wave at sunset. My hope is that my art would be an outward expression of the light coming from within."

"In my most recent project, 'Recycled Art', I repurpose elements cut from my own artwork and my photos to create new Mixed Media Collages." - Artist Lynda Frautnick
I have always wanted to be an artist, but life always got in the way. However, in retirement I was able to reinvent myself. I started with workshops in Chinese Watercolor and fell in love with the medium. Eight years later, I quite accidentally discovered Alcohol Ink and have spent five years teaching myself and refining my techniques with these vibrant inks. During the pandemic last year, I began taking online classes in Abstract Acrylic. At present, I'm obsessed with the cutting up old art work to recycle and repurpose into Mixed Media Collage. I am a member of Santa Clarita Artists Association and Women Painters West, and I finally call myself an artist.

Judy Reinsma's Ranch Finally! June 18, 2021
|
This month we will try again to meet at Judy Reinsma’s Ranch at 29750 San Francisquito Canyon Road, two miles from Copper Hill, from 9:00 to 12:00.
Last month the utility company chose to install poles on our day! Come prepared to find a lovely barn, canyon views and horses. It is not far from Santa Clarita but seems like another world. I hope you will come and enjoy this beautiful spot the film industry likes to use for scenes. This year we have a plus. Judy will open her 40 by 60 ft. car barn with tables set up in half the barn. These tables are perfect to bring your art supplies that you no longer need or no longer want. You decide to sell’em, trade’em or give’em away. Then just hang out and relax. We met at Judy’s home last year and found a great deal to draw and paint. It is a great location with several buildings, views, as well as horses to draw. We can enjoy sharing information about painting outdoors. Come with a sketchbook or your medium of choice. It is a great way to spend time outdoors. Call or email if you need further information. Hope to see you at the ranch! To get to Judy’s home Take Copperhill to San Francisquito Canyon Road and go north. Follow the road for 2.4 miles to Riverview Road and turn right. Judy’s ranch is the first gate on the left. Also check with GPS to get more detailed instructions from where you live. Meressa Naftulin 661.993.6251 Meressa922@gmail.com |

rCarl Purcell taught painting and drawing at Snow College in Utah for 30 years. He is currently retired from the college but is a popular painting and drawing workshop instructor, having conducted workshops throughout the West, from Alaska to Arizona , and in Great Britain.
Carl is the author of the North Light publications, Painting With Your Artist’s Brain (a watercolor book) and Drawing With Your Artist’s Brain. In addition his art has been featured in numerous articles published in The Artist’s Magazine and in Splash I. He has been invited to jury exhibits in Colorado, New Mexico, Wyoming, Utah, Nevada, Michigan and California.
Carl has achieved signature member status in the National Watercolor Society and was given honor member status in the Utah Watercolor Society for his contributions to watercolor in the state. He has won numerous awards, including a purchase award in the 2008 National Watercolor Society’s international exhibition. In 2009 Carl was chosen as one of the panel of three judges for the National Watercolor Society Annual Exhibition.
“Stone Cadence” is one of a series of paintings I have been working on that explore the rhythmic patterns I see and feel in rock surfaces. I am drawn to the contrast of vertical fissures and cracks that cut through the horizontal layers of rock strata. To me these counter thrusts are like the unplanned events that cut through the well-laid plans of our lives. I see these rocks as living forms, moving and dancing to the rhythm of life.”
While his primary medium of choice is watercolor, Carl also loves to work in oil and acrylic. Carl lives with his wife Nan in Manti, a small town in central Utah. His paintings reflect his love of nature, especially the rock canyon country of Utah.
