I am excited for our next meeting at The Artist Studio this Saturday (please see side bar for location & time details)! Mr. Fred Miller is an exceptional portrait artist based right here in Albuquerque. He is a treasured local artist, a past president of the Pastel Society, and has proven his outstanding commitment to the world of art though teaching & workshops!I believe his true dedication can be seen through his own words: "…I am a full time painter and teacher of portrait painting." His sincere hope is to be considered by his students as one of the teachers who profoundly helped them realize their potential in the field of art. He has studied with a number of outstanding artists, including Jackie Goodyear, Sally Strand, Albert Handel, and Bud Edmondson. And like our own group - they shared, taught, and pushed each other to a higher level.
On his website, I found not only portraits, but impressive landscapes in oil and pastel. I encourage our members to look at Mr. Miller's website before the next meeting.
I cannot wait for this meeting and am looking forward to seeing Fred Miller in action, and all of our talented members as well!
Sincerely Your Prez
Jeff Stephenson
