SPECIAL EVENT:
 MAKE ART WITH THE FREMONT ARTS COUNCIL in LENIN SQUARE
With the Fremont Fair coming up, we need help creating lots of colorful adornments for the grand event!  Artist Sonia Telesco will have a tent set up next to the Lenin statue during the art walk, where she will be sharing her celebration art tie dye techniques to create this community art project; an assemblage of hand painted banners decorating the street and stages for the Solstice Parade!  All ages welcome to participate (kid friendly with adult assist).
There is no charge for this fantastic lesson in celebration arts, but you can always donate to the Fremont Arts Council & the Solstice Parade at this link: 






100 NE Northlake Way, Ste. 200
"Printmaking (is) a revolutionary medium. The possibility of multiples allows for a wider distribution of work.  This is significant, as sharing ones experience and ones own existence in a fundamental reason to create.  Multiples also lead to lower prices, widening the market to a larger economic range.  The imagery within my work also holds to these ideals, and attempts to dissolve barriers by remaining ambiguous.  Much of my work is figurative, as seeing ourselves strengthens the connection and allows all of us to relate.  Each piece is a variable, open for each individual to draw and relate to it for themselves."

Mark Siano is a Seattle based artist who works primarily in creating ink representations of nature.  A self-proclaimed "Sharpie Artist", Siano uses the iconic black markers to illustrate the branches, bramble, and the twisting entanglements that dominate the Pacific Northwest Landscape.  In addition to the swirling and snarl silhouettes that have become the artist's trademark, Siano is also greatly influenced by the stylized patterns of early art nouveau.  Inspired by the famous works of Mucha, Beardsley, and Gaudi, Mark likes to take a darker twist on the beauty of nature.

What attracted us to Janet and made us want to show her was the lushness of her paintings. Images of jungles and gardens are thick with all manner of plants and creatures. But then that contrasts with her still lifes: simple, graceful, serene. Janet describes her process like this: "I paint and sculpt mainly from my imagination. I create a story in my mind, and then I try and create it on canvas or in clay."  Join as and see the world that comes from this beautiful imagination!
