Catherine Tirr Presents In Situ
In April, the Art Wall in Forbes Hall will display works from Catherine Tirr’s Plein Air Painting class at Santa Monica College’s Emeritus College. Devoted to working in situ, the students have created paintings in a variety of locations in Santa Monica, Venice, and Malibu.
The class meets Friday mornings for three hours. The students bring mostly water color and sometimes oil paint to work with, along with boundless enthusiasm.
Catherine Tirr has been teaching the Plein Air Painting class since 2000. She earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Fine Art from Ravensbourne College of Art and a Master’s Degree from Chelsea School of Art and Design, both in London. She continues to paint and exhibit her work, while teaching at Santa Monica College and Pierce College.
For further info about this show or about exhibiting on the Art Wall at the Unitarian Universalist Community Church of Santa Monica, please contact our art director, Beverly Alison, at balison@aol.com. For weekday appointments, please contact Nancy Thompson at assistant@uusm.org or 310-829-5436 ext 102.
