Featuring Tacoma Artist

Arlene Towne 

July 17th, 5:30 - 7:30pm, at Tacoma Art Place

Art has always been part of her life.  Whether
painting, taking photos on her travels or visiting galleries.   She sees color, shapes and values, all the
art components that make a good painting. But also
adds her emotions to the subject. 

  Arlene lives in a small condominium and now has had
the chance to spread out and paint bigger abstract
pieces since she has moved to the Jet Artist Cooperative.  Using acrylics, mediums for texture she
has painted several paintings from life models. She has
also recently completed a series of paintings done from
her last trip to Italy.  She visited small Tuscany towns
near the villa and did quick sketches and completed painting from her digital photos.  The paintings are of markets and villas.
