SUMMARY:Andante Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Andante – A Very Special Exhibition\nPresented by Serena Yeo\, Monica Eun Kyung Choi\, Yumi Shintani and Jong Wook Won \nReception: Sunday\, July 9 • 2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. \n  \n“It’s always better to be with others than to be alone. Better to walk with others than walk alone. Better to eat with others than eat alone\, better to see the world with others than see it alone…” ~Serena Yeo. \nHere gather four artists – Serena Yeo\, teacher\, and students Monica Choi\, Yumi Shintani and Jong W Won. While from different backgrounds and life paths\, they have been working together to overcome their differences by uniting under one language – Art. \nThe students were in their sixties when they joined the art class. Time passed and they are now in their 70’s. Their passion\, understanding of heart\, and steadfastness helped bring forth unique\, lively works of art. Their persistence and hard work made this very special exhibition possible. \nMonica Eun Kyung Choi’s faith in Jesus Christ’s love is beautifully expressed in “Annunciation and Pieta.” Another work “Sinless Children” is an expression of her love towards humankind and her belief that it was saved by the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. “I graduated from Ewha Women’s University\, Korea in 1972. Before I came to America as an immigrant in 1976\, I was a Korean Airline flight attendant. After taking several courses\, I became a computer programmer and worked at the National Technology Information System of Department of Commerce. I have also worked at St. Paul Chung Korean Catholic Church as Religious Education Provider and now I am volunteering at the parish as a FOCCUS Facilitator providing pre-marriage preparation for young couples” noted Choi. \nYumi Shintani expresses her surroundings\, such as her son\, her cat and hand-down belongings among other things with a simple yet very precise and distinct touch in her own singular style. \n“Art has been a major part of my life.  Japanese calligraphy has been my central challenge over four decades.  It has led to work at the Freer Gallery of art (NMAA) as a volunteer/ contractor from 1998 to the present. I have taught Japanese culture classes including calligraphy\, flower arrangement and cooking at RCC. Through the teaching of Ms. Serena Yeo\, I have a better understanding of painting both physically and mentally. Every painting that I now make has a story and I have learned to take time to finish each painting to final completion”\, comments Yumi. \nJong Wook Won abstractly expresses his spirituality cultivated from his numerous travels. With the attention and accuracy of a scientist\, he was able to characterize not only the greatness of nature on canvas\, but his utmost love for his grandson. He says: “I am a scientist in Physics. I graduated at Nuclear Atomic Engineering in SNU and Laser Physics in KAIST. I worked in research field at KRISS. I worked as visiting scientist at NIST in Maryland and PTB in Germany. I worked also in Venture Business for a long time. I have learned acrylics from Serena Yeo since 2012.  I am very happy and feel lucky to learn from her.” \nSerena Yeo. Born in Seoul\, South Korea in 1968\, Ms. Yeo began her art journey in grade school and went on to obtain a Bachelor of Fine Arts\, where she focused on print making\, studio work and teaching art. Teaching art has been a part of her life in South Korea and the USA for over 30 years as an instructor at a church-run adult school\, at language schools for children and self-operated art institute. As President of the Korean-American Artists’ Association (HMAA)\,  Ms. Yeo supported immigrant children adapt and find their footing in an unfamiliar land through fundraising events\, art demonstrations and donations. “Yeo says\, “as an immigrant who has spent 23 years in the U.S and has grown to call it home\, I hope to express my personal journey through my art.” She has won several awards in America\, Korea\, and China. She lives in Silver Spring\, Maryland where her studio is located. \nConclusion by Serena Yeo. “I had a very precious time with these students who were so passionate in the latter years of life. Their attitudes toward life influenced me greatly. The invaluable time I spent with them often showed itself in my works. Our main commonality has been the habit of rushing through the earlier halves of our lives\,” Serena Yeo says. “However\, now we have taken the opportunity to slow down\, to look back and take a breath instead of simply hurrying through each day. This is\, in a way\, the ‘Andante’ turn of our lives.” \n“Through this newly afforded introspection\, I came to see that the love\, the sadness\, the accusations and regrets\, the gratitude and remorse\, every emotion I have could only be expressed through nature. Nature\, which always carried me through my toughest times\, and picked me up when I was down. To that end\, I hope to capture my respect and gratitude towards nature’s accepting embrace in my works “Spring\,” “Summer\,” “Autumn” and “Winter.”

SUMMARY:Space and Time Repurposed Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:TIME AND SPACE REPURPOSED\nDates: July 24 – August 21\, 2023 • Jo Anne Rose Gallery \nReception: Sunday\, July 30\, 2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. \nArt by Arnold Lopes and a Few Reston Friends: Selemon Getachew\, Theresa Hosinski\, Touran Mahdaviazar\, Marthe McGrath\, Deirdre McGuire\,\nAnn Millard\, Karen Olive\, Tim Waters and Glenn Zora \n\nArnold Lopes. The “Mona Lisa” followed Leonardo da Vinci wherever he went. Off and on and now and then he worked on it. Arnold says that he has this vision of da Vinci pulling Mona out from under his bed to work on her and then in frustration shoving her back under\, muttering to himself\, “Can’t get that stupid smile right.” The painting was in da Vinci’s possession on the day he died as court painter for Francois I\, the king of France. \nOver the years Arnold has accumulated a host of paintings that follow him wherever he lands. “They take up space on my walls\, fill my closets to bursting\, with quite a few stacked up under my bed.” Lately\, in semi-retirement\, he has found time to ponder them. In a way\, he says\, “this is a show of life repurposed.” \nArnold’s passion for astronomical discovery began as a kid fascinated by images of planets\, moons\, and stars on the covers on science fiction paperbacks. He began buying them for 25 cents each\, to sketch and draw the covers. Born in the Hawaiian Islands. In the museums and libraries of Hawaii and California\, Arnold was drawn to artists like Rene Magritte\, Salvador Dali\, Roger Dean\, Hieronymus Bosch\, Michelangelo\, Kelly Freas\, and Frank Frazetta. He earned an art degree from the University of Hawaii in 1998. An expert framer\, skilled painter\, and art teacher extraordinaire\, Arnold’s many art classes at Reston Community Center Lake Anne were filled with admiring students. He now lives in West Virginia\, but we are betting he will be back! \nSelemon Getachew is a Reston-based mathematician masquerading as an oil painter. Born and raised in the highlands of Ethiopia\, Selemon has had a lifelong relationship with visual arts that is shaped by the ancient history\, tradition\, and landscape of his homeland. While working towards his Ph.D. in mathematics at Brown University\, Selemon painted on the side while enrolled in their Visual Arts Department courses. \nSelemon believes that pure mathematics is essentially art with a theoretical medium — where elegance and beauty trump utility and where the driving obsession is the pursuit of the simplest underlying structure behind reality. After a long hiatus from painting\, Selemon was motivated to restart after joining the thriving art scene at the Reston Community Center. He continues to paint actively in his backyard studio. Selemon’s works are currently not for sale because\, he says\, “the buyers would have to surrender to him their house keys to allow him to continue to rework the pieces indefinitely!” \nTheresa Hosinski\nI am a painter and a poet\nI paint portraits of rockstars who don’t know it\nTake a look at my artwork\nAnd you will see\nA little bit of me \nMarthe McGrath\, an artist based in Reston\, Virginia\, has been painting daily for over a decade. After a long\, successful career designing area rugs for select residential and commercial clients\, the transition to fulltime painting came naturally. “I keep both my life and my art playful and free. I fearlessly create mostly abstract art with a modern flair\,” she says. Global travel experiences influence Marthe’s bold and richly colored canvasses. Her process utilizes many media types like acrylics\, oils\, collage and mark-making tools. \nMarthe is a juried member of TFAA (Torpedo Factory Artists Association) and many other local and national art groups. Her work can be seen at Touchstone Gallery in Washington D.C. or by visiting her website www.M2artist.com.Her studio in Reston Art Gallery (RAGS) at Lake Anne Plaza was established in 1964. “I enjoy welcoming visitors from around the world. The opportunity to meet and get to know collectors of my work is wonderful.” \nTouran Mahdaviazar An immigrant from Iran\, Touran was inspired by the wonder and beauty of colors in nature to draw and paint at a very young age. Most of her notebooks and textbooks were covered with her drawings. With no formal education in art\, she has used her natural abilities to create works that hang in the homes of friends and family bringing them peace and joy. Now In retirement\, she has more time to devote to her art\, including taking classes as Reston Community Center with Arnold Lopes and others. Her favorite paintings still relate to nature. \n“When I start a new painting\, I am in a different world where I cannot hear or see anything around me and I do not realize the passing of time\,” Touran says. She hopes to inspire a new generation to pursue their talent\, inspiration\, and passion.  \nDeirdre McGuire Deirdre has spent her professional career in theatre design and teaching in New York and California where she designed scenery and costumes for more than 200 productions of theatre\, dance\, and opera. After retiring to Lake Anne in 2012\, she took advantage of the Community Center facilities to pursue her interests in sculpture and painting. She has enjoyed the fellowship of our local artistic community and has just joined the League of Reston Artists. \nAnn Millard is an accomplished acrylic and mixed media artist who now resides in Asheville\, North Carolina having spent many years participating in art classes and exhibits at the Reston Community Center. She studied art at George Mason University and art therapy at George Washington University. Ann was inspired to translate her viewing experience of the documentary “Monster Black Hole” to the creation of collage images. \nHer abstract collages portray her visual impression of the dynamism of “black holes.” “Scientists and non-scientists alike have recently become awed by the demise of space debris and explosive stars\, millions of light years away that disappear to the point of no return within the black hole. Black holes of monstrous size decimate all that reach their enormous expanding edges\, causing light to disappear\, even swallowing galaxies\,” Ann relates. The collages in this exhibit display Ann’s imaginative view of this phenomenon with “stuff” from the universe in various stages of demise\, splintering giant fragments of matter\, (some of human origin) and swallowing the debris of the universe. \nKaren Olive was born in Pottsville\, Pennsylvania\, and lived in Chicago for over 20 years. Visiting and taking classes at the Art institute of Chicago developed her love of art. She has won awards for her photography work and one of her pieces was exhibited at the Chicago Architectural Center and published in the Chicago Tribune. “Earning an associate degree in architectural technology at age 40 convinced me that I could draw\,” she says. \nShe has been taking art courses at Reston Community Center for over 10 years. “During that time\, Arnold Lopes was an inspirational teacher for me\,” Karen says. “I use acrylics to portray the bold\, vibrant color and fantastical shapes of astronomical phenomena. Celestial images inspire me with awe. I try to capture the beauty and mystery of space in my works.” She teaches high school mathematics to support her life as an artist. \nTim Waters is a retired Information Systems Engineer and software programmer and has lived in Reston for over 40 years. Born and raised in New York City\, he has been creating art in acrylics\, oil\, chalk pastels\, charcoal\, and graphite for 10 years. He also creates mobiles out of paper\, recycled plastics\, and aluminum wire. Tim’s archenemy is watercolor. \nGlenn Zora is an engineer by training\, having worked for the U.S. Navy for 35 Years and retiring in 2011. “I took my first art class\, Acrylics for Beginners in the fall of 2017 and was immediately hooked.” Glenn enjoys working in acrylics. “It is a forgiving medium and allows me to paint over my many mistakes.” Arnold Lopes provided the impetus for Glenn to attempt to paint on the clear plexiglass sheets. He has also worked in other mediums most notably soft pastels\, and he occasionally dabbles in oil pastels and colored pencils.

SUMMARY:Shaped by Reston Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Acrylic abstracts by Dr. Joe Hyman.\nAcrylic abstracts\, fantasy portraits\, and landscapes by Mia Merin. \nLiving in the seasonally dynamic landscape of Reston’s lush forestland for a combined total of over ninety years\, local artists Mia Merin and Joe Hyman have been inspired to create art based on their local surroundings\, personal  travels\, and their vivid imaginations. These family friends  are joining forces to present a show composed of abstracts\, fantasy portraits\, and landscapes. \nIn 1971\, Joe and Janet Hyman moved into their new house in Reston’s Hunters Woods community. Joe\, a clinical psychologist\, opened Reston’s first clinical psychologist private practice in his home. He designed and built a new facility on South Lakes Drive\, adjacent to the USGS\, called The Counseling and Therapy Building. Joe began creating abstract geometric paintings on canvas. His intuitive and non-objective painting process results in colorful\, complex artwork that evokes various emotions and joy. He is pleased to share his art alongside the work of Mia Merin\, a longtime Restonian and family friend. \nMia Merin\, a Reston resident since 1987\, has a background in geology and art. She creates landscape paintings based on her favorite hikes and uses art as an outlet for emotions. During the pandemic\, she found inspiration from a 1988 Soviet Art exchange and engaged with the works of Matisse. She explored new perspectives on creating art through Zoom meetings and followed a method by Shiloh Sophia\, resulting in abstract paintings that reflect personal experiences and emotions. Mia believes that art’s meaning is subjective and belongs to the beholder. \n. \nReception: Sunday\, July 28 • 2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m.

SUMMARY:“From Wood to Watercolor” Reception
DESCRIPTION:Watercolor Paintings by Don Janus\n \nReception: Sunday\, January 11\, 2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. \n“From Wood to Watercolor” speaks to the primary elements underpinning my creative process. From journeyman carpenter to master woodworker\, sometime potter and avid sketcher\, I have always been creating things with my hands. \nMy initial foray from sketcher to watercolorist was at the behest of Lubna Zahid\, a fine artist and former RCC instructor\, who encouraged me to try my hand at painting. Other strong influences include Christine Lashley\, Diane Ellor and Vicky Zhou\, along with a group of painting friends who continue to inspire me. \nThe essential through-line connecting my creative experience is the ability to envision how to manifest a desired outcome. That line flows directly into watercolor\, where it takes a practiced hand to brush paint onto paper and bring my vision to light. Many courses\, online immersions and museum visits later\, with some homage images on display here\, you can see my influences span Edward Seago\, Edward Wesson\, James McNeil Whistler\, Andrew Wyeth\, Issac Levitan and Chiura Obata. \nAs also evidenced in this exhibit\, I gravitate toward portraying structures in rural landscapes\, particularly the decrepit\, weathered remnants that I have witnessed across Rappahannock County where I have built my studio. I also have an affinity for certain furry and feathered creatures.
