Carson Valley Arts Council presents local watercolor artist Irene Taylor and wildlife artist Hank George at the Copeland Gallery in Minden through June 28.

“I have called myself an artist even as a child, influenced by creative parents who surrounded us with the arts and the process of art,” Taylor said. “For over 40 years, my professional career was as a graphic designer.”

Taylor said her passion is to take what she sees and put it into color and feeling what she experiences.

“My best work comes when I have experienced a scene or flowers, study it with color, composition in mind, and joy of the heart, and then photograph for further reference.”

Taylor has been one of the artists on the Carson Valley Arts Council’s Annual Art Studio Tour.

George grew up in California observing the annual migration of waterfowl, salmon, and the abundance of warm water game fish.  His pieces are carved from kiln-dried western sugar pine, sealed with acrylic undercoats and paints applied by a combination of hand and airbrush.

Their exhibit can be viewed 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday. Work will be available for purchase.

The Arts Council will host a free artist’s reception 1-3 p.m. Saturday. For more information visit www.cvartscouncil.com or call 775-782-8207. The Copeland Gallery is located at the corner of Highway 395 and County Road in Minden.
