The Spring Art Show has a variety of items that you, as a supporter of the arts may be interested in contributing to. We always expect it to be an exciting, professional, and fun event for everyone. To accomplish this, your help would be greatly appreciated.
Sponsorship of art and the monetary prizes gives you the option to hand that award to the artist. Other ways to help are to sponsor all or part of our expenses such as printing/mailing, reception costs such as cake or wine, advertising (this helps with sales), and many other items.
A cash donation is tax deductible. It also helps LCAC's continued effort to bring classes to our youth, teens and other events to the community. A donation of any amount whether $20, $100, $500 or more is always appreciated.
Thank you very much,
Renee Rondon

ABOUT THE SHOW JUDGES
-
The comments heard most often about her paintings are "they make me feel joyful," "lift my spirits," and "they are filled with a sense of light and lightness." As an artist who is constantly looking for the beauty of light in every subject, this is music to her ears. As a person who is wildly optimistic about life and positive about the future, she is thrilled her paintings reflect this "joie de vivre" attitude and bring joy to her collector. Janette uses a strong sense of design, personal color mixes and an intimate point of view to create her distinct style.

I am primarily a ceramic sculptor but have worked with printmaking, acrylic painting cyanotypes, collage, wool fiber, bronze, welded metal sculptures, batik, and sewn soft sculptures out of old sweaters. I think like many artists, I have a tendency to hoard, which I battle against daily. I abhor clutter, but I scrutinize every bit of detritus for its potential as part of an art project.
There are many artists who create magnificent works of art that challenge our ideas about the world, make us question our beliefs, our way of living, our customs and traditions, push us to think and see the world differently -- all worthy goals. I occasionally make forays into those realms, sometimes subtly, sometimes less so; however, my primary goal is simple: I want my art to make me smile. If it makes someone else smile, too, that's great. There are times when I feel so oppressed by the problems of the world, the problems of everyday life, that I think the best thing I can do is bring a smile to someone.
