OPENING RECEPTION FOR GALVESTON PORTRAITS:
Saturday, October 12th-5:30 to 9:30
Born in Houston, Arthur Deatly received his BFA from Kansas City Art Institute and his All-Level Art Certification from the University of Houston in 2003. After working in sales for 10 or so years, yet being encouraged by artist friends to get back into painting, he decided to leave sales and started substitute teaching for Houston’s Independent School District. After receiving his All-Level certification, he began teaching High School Art and is currently an art teacher at Klein ISD. He began Plein Air painting in the early 2000’s and has been painting this way ever since. What started as mainly urban landscapes has grown into a more regional survey of the part of the world he lives in and loves.
Arthur says, ‘From Katy silohs to Galveston cemeteries, there is something about the sublime, understated, often truncated assemblage of stuff, where industrial, commercial and
residential all compete with nature in this never-ending dance for dominance that make what
I call the beautiful, ugly. You just got to look.’
COME ON OUT-TAKE A LOOK.
BUY ART; IT’S GOOD FOR THE SOUL!
