| Last Saturday Gallery Night – Mark your Calendars for November 26th. Bring your friends and family to the historic downtown square for Gallery Night which runs 5pm – 8pm. We have recently added many new pieces to the gallery and will be offering refreshments. You will have the opportunity to meet our amazing featured artist, Chuck Roach! Chuck will also be painting during the event and answering questions about his work. Featured Artist Chuck Roach Chuck Roach was born in Albany Texas, and grew up in Novice, TX. Roach has been involved with art since he was a child and won an art prize at the age of 9. As he grew up, he found that he was not the only one interested in the allure of his artwork. He attended Tarleton State University and earned a degree in history and went on to teach at Merkel High School. Through his 28 teaching years, Roach did not forget his interest in art and would try throughout the year to paint portraits of his students. “Over the course of the year, I could get half of them done on 19×25 paper. I would always try to do everybody, but I never managed to do them all, but anyway it was great practice,” Roach said. He has been selling art in West Texas for more than 35 years.His preferred medium is Acrylic, usually applied to Masonite. He can also do portraits using colored pencil on paper. He often paints scenes from Western movies, applying abstract form to realistic subjects. Chuck draws inspiration for his work from both iconic western figures and scenes, and the every-day people around him. His unique, colorful technique creates a personal connection between his paintings’ subjects and the viewer. |
