The Art of the Portrait at MRAC
The Atelier at MRAC serves as a place of artistic study for many of our members and neighbors. Our artists gather regularly to paint together and provide support and gentle critique to one another. This exhibit will feature the work of artists who have spent hours working from live models in the atelier to produce a stunning array of portraiture.
Come and check out a few dozen friendly (and maybe familiar) faces on the walls of the MRAC gallery. Show opens September 14 at 1 p.m.
