(430 Main St. Longmont)
November 8, Rey Ford will share an oil painting presentation. His oil painting subjects include equine, still life, people, and pets. In 2012 he won the prestigious, "Best Mastery of Medium & Technique" at the Arts Student League of Denver's 2012 Art Market. Rey's paintings have also been included in the Oil Painters of America's Western Regional Show in 2016 and 2017.
Asked why he paints, Rey says, "When I pick up a brush, I step into the unknown. Every painting is a process of discovery that asks me to trust the mystery of seeing. Wholeness is there, gratefulness is there-- -painting is what feeds my soul. It teaches me how to live."
Currently, he paints and teaches painting in his Longmont Studio for more information on his classes view his website. http://reyfordfineart.com/other2
