The Escondido Art Associa­tion will host Chuck McPherson as demo artist at their upcoming general meeting in the DEB room behind the auditorium at the Park Avenue Community Center on Feb­ruary 10, from 7–9 p.m.

McPherson’s lively style of paint­ing includes setting up a splash zone in the first couple of rows as he dives into his watercolor using a loaded 6 inch brush to begin his creation. He entertains his audi­ence with a quick wit while embel­lishing his free-style paintings with props borrowed from the crowd, like lipstick and coffee. This in­tuitive artist paints full-time and recently founded www.Ballast­PointGallery.com where he offers workshops, paint-alongs, critiques and serves as discerning art show juror. He began offering water­color classes at the Art Academy of San Diego beginning January 2016. chuckmcphersonart.com/

He served as Third VP on the NWS Board, two years as the Member Shows Director on the SDWS Board, and three years as Newsletter Chair on the San Di­ego Museum of Art Artists Guild Board. Today he serves as 1st Vice President of the Foothills Art Asso­ciation.
