Art on the Water

Art on the Water
Lodi is a town full of homegrown treasures; our wines, vintners, gourmet food purveyors and artists! We are pleased to announce that Lodiís Knowlton Gallery (http://www.knowltongallery.com/) will be at Treasure Island WineFest! The Knowlton Gallery will display several original paintings depicting the Lodi landscape and way of life. A few of Lodiís gifted plein air artists will paint live at the event!
Stop by and see Juan Pena, (http://www.knowltongallery.com/html/pena.html) an avid practitioner and advocate of transparent water color, who will set up on the island to capture the beauty of the day on canvas. Pena has studied under such greats as Vernon Nye, Thomas Leighton and Jade Fon Woo. In the 1960s Pena began on-location pencil drawings and has been painting plein air ever since. His paintings demonstrate a moment in time and the work pops with enthusiasm for his subject.
Another very talented plein air artist, Ann McMillan studies the interaction of light and color in the tradition of California Impressionism. Her peices reflect the vibrancy of nature and her love of close observation of the landscape. Her recent work emphasizes the intensity and subtlety of sun and shadow. It will be amazing to watch her capture the scenes at TIWF in the San Francisco Bay.
