Explore Picasso! with Pat Cole-Ferullo
Picasso said: "Are we to paint what's on the face, what's inside the face, or what's behind it?" To answer his own question Picasso explored all aspects of art, experimented with new forms and techniques, and lead the art world into a new era. As the Tryon Fine Arts Center continues its series, Explore the Arts, Pat Cole-Ferullo will "Explore Picasso's World" on Thursday, January 28th in the TFAC Board Room from 6:30 - 8:30 pm. Pat will give you an anecdotal view of Picasso, his life and work as well as present a few surprises.
Pat's own abstract art captures the spiritual connections of the natural world. Her workshops and classes attract both amateurs and professionals. Pat has a degree in Fine Art and Commercial Art from Florida State University, has studied with nationally recognized artists, has published in national magazines, and currently has a joint exhibit with her husband Dom Ferullo, at the Chapman Center in Spartanburg. Pat and Dom recently moved back to Tryon after two years painting and exhibiting in Italy. Her work continues to win top awards both nationally and internationally. Pat believes that art is the means by which we connect the mind and the spirit. Pat would agree with Picasso who said, "All children are artists. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up."
Plan to attend "Explore Picasso's World" at the Tryon Fine Arts Center, Mahler Family Board Room, 34 Melrose Avenue in Tryon on January 28. Cost of $7.00 for adults, $4.00 for students covers refreshments and fees.
