Please join us on
Tuesday, February 3 , 2015
for a mixed media demonstration by
Connie Tunick
A Northwestern University graduate from Illinois, Connie is an educator and
children’s art specialist with a teaching credential and MA degree in Education from California Lutheran University, Thousand Oaks, California.
Prolific artist and Thousand Oaks’
Hillcrest Galleria Co-Curator, Connie Tunick’s art ranges from experimental paintings with collage and
mixed media to printmaking. Tunick
has worked as a professional artist
for many years, and is well known in
the art publishing world. She spends
much of her time working and
teaching at her industrial studio in
Newbury Park.
Connie has won numerous awards, and her work is in private and corporate
collections worldwide. Some corporate commissions include Princess Cruise
Lines; Marriott Marquis Hotel, New York City, and Crown Plaza Hotel,
White Plains, New York; Los Robles Hospital and Medical Center, Thousand
Oaks, and Clear Channel Communications, Burbank, California. Showing in
galleries and participating in juried shows make for a busy and creative life.
Connie states, “Art is my way of communicating, and through familiar imagery I am able to “speak” a common language with the viewer. Symbols that
represent the common threads and relationships of our lives are prevalent in
my art. I am a painter, a mixed media collage artist, and a printmaker. Color
and texture are always at the heart of my work.”
Visit Connie’s web site http://connietunick.com for more information.
Seeking space for local artists to
exhibit, Connie became a Charter
Board Member of the Thousand
Oaks Community Gallery. She belongs to the Thousand Oaks Art Association and Women Painters West,
both juried art organizations. She is
a Board Member of the Arts Council
of the Conejo Valley.

WVAG Members' Show - January 5-30, 2015
Hello Members,
Our annual WVAG Members’
Show event showcasing the work
of our members brings together the
strength, the creativity, and talent
found within our guild. Thank you
to all for contributing to another
successful show.
This show is a labor of love by members who volunteer their time, energy, expertise, and enthusiasm to set
up and manage this fabulous exhibition of artwork. Thank you to those
who have helped along the way.
Our take-in team headed by Bob and
Karen Phipps and their committee,
and Lyn Conlan and John Conforti
for recording the entries. Thank you
to our outstanding hanging committee of volunteers who helped hang
158 pieces in the newly remodeled
gallery.
Our beautiful reception, hospitality
chair Susie Ciufo and her wonderful team for setting up an exquisite
spread of wine and hors d’oeuvres,
we thank you.
Frank Eber©
And of course, we thank our two
show chairs, Lee Zimmerman and
Burt Misevic for their countless hours
spent making our members show a
success.
We had two esteemed judges for our
show-Frank Eber and Bob Privitt.
Both were selected for their exceptional talent and skill.
Frank Eber is a professional illustrator
and a portrait artist. He is a signature
member of the American Watercolor
Society, National Watercolor Society,
Transparent Watercolor Society of
America, and Watercolor West. He
teaches and conducts workshop internationally and all over our country.
Bob Privitt has judged and juried
many shows. We are glad to have him
judge our Members’ Show once again.
An emeritus professor of 40 years at
Pepperdine University; he is a painter,
sculpture, and an assemblage artist,
whose work is shown nationally and
locally.
Mr. Privitt states, “Because of my
experience and qualifications, I am
open to a wide variety of styles, techniques, and media. In judging any
show, I am most interested in content and craftsmanship. When I look
at a work of art, I want to be able to
see that the artist had something to
say, and that they said it well, with
passion, and intensity.”
Our show runs through the month
of January, so please stop by and see
our WVAG members’ fine works.
Online submission for the next
WVAG Open Juried Show is now
available. More information can be
found on page 7 of our newsletter
and on our website: www.wvartguild.

Keep creating!
