Thisa is the last week to experience The Pasadena Society of Artists’ latest edition of its Artist’s Choice Exhibition, a labor of love, passion, creativity, and uniqueness (and commerce, too, because all the artwork is available for purchase). The enthralling shows is at Whites Fine Art Gallery located at 2414 Honolulu Avenue in Montrose, California. It will be a labor of love, passion, creativity, and uniqueness (and commerce, too, because all the artwork will be available for purchase).
Artwork in this exhibition has been created or selected by the artist and many are new works not previously seen by the public. Exhibition Chair Tom Oldfield says, “The PSA Artists Choice Exhibit is our version of a creative/artistic free-for-all. This is an exhibit where the members can push their creative envelope and submit work that they might not submit for a juried exhibition. This may be work of a different style or creative medium. Whatever it is, this is our opportunity to show work that we are proud of that would not be in a typical exhibit. Take your time and enjoy the art.”
The exhibition closes on Saturday, October 29. Concurrently the exhibition can be viewed at ISSUU.com or the PSA website: www.PasadenaSocietyofArtists.org. A printed catalog will be available for purchase.
