ORGANIZER Public Arts League of Salado
The Public Arts League of Salado was formed in 2002 with
the mission of promoting public arts and artists in the
following four ways:
Artwork by Chelsea B. Allison
It’s officially fall! Join us on Saturday, October 10th from 1pm – 7pm when Patty Thomas will be on hand to discuss her newest artworks. She was selected for the next exhibition at the winery to showcase and celebrate Central Texas and the beauty of fall.
Ms. Thomas, a Temple resident, studied art at the Texas Schools of Fine Arts in Austin and graduated with a degree in fine arts from Abilene Christian University. She has owned a graphic design company, painted furniture and murals, and sold her paintings in galleries. Ms. Thomas loves to paint Central Texas landscapes that highlight big skies, winding roads, and beautiful views of our area. As she puts it, “Today we seem to be caught in such busy, every-minute-filled lifestyles. My paintings are intended to move us toward a calmer, less stressful pace for everyday living.” You can see her artwork at www.pattythomasfineart.com.
The winery gallery will be filled with Ms. Thomas’s artwork, available for sale until the end of December. Of course, we’ll have plenty of wine open for tasting and savoring. We’ll also be debuting our newest release, the 2014 Big Bully. The 2014 vintage, a Tempranillo-Malbec blend, was grown in Temple and will be bottled earlier in the week.
Join us on Saturday, January 24th, 2015, from 5-8 pm, when Christy Tremblay will be on hand to discuss her art show “A Painted House a Day“. Ms. Tremblay, a mixed media artist, was selected for the next exhibition at the winery due to her unique perspective on military life.
Christy just completed an art challenge, A Painted House A Day. Her goal was to create with paint and mixed media one house image a day, for 183 days. She completed 183 Painted Houses from March 2014 to September 2014.
A Northwest native, Ms Tremblay has taught in Korea and visited cities, rural areas and islands in Southeast Asia. She started using the imagery of houses in her art about four years ago when she and her family were living on Fort Bliss in El Paso, TX. They had a historical Bungalow with a lot of charm. She says, ” Growing up I had two houses I called ‘home.’ As an adult and with a family of my own, I have had many houses to make a home. My husband is Active Duty Army and we move often. Although a move comes with work and saying goodbyes, we embrace each move and look forward to our new adventures, people to meet, and places to explore. Houses are houses. A home is for a family to create safety, love, and memories. As I make each move with my two daughters and husband, I find our locations and houses to change, but our home stays the same.”
The Salado Winery gallery will be filled with Ms. Tremblay’s artwork, which will be available for sale throughout the spring. Wines produced on the premise will be available for savoring as folks view and purchase these local art treasures.
