Art Show + LIVE Action
Painting Experience
Over the last 7 years, it has been a privilege to showcase some really outstanding artists to our G2H2 community. In the past, we have featured Nick Yakimovich, Chou Chou Guilder, Chris Palumbo, Herb Morgan, Freddie Lamoreaux, Taz Stacy, Sonny Black, Tony Corbitt and Amy Kern. In November, we continue the tradition and feature the artwork of a longtime friend of mine, Steven McCune. Steven and I met while attending college in Pittsburgh and after losing touch with Steven for over a decade, we recently reunited after he moved to Orlando. McCune has been making his mark in the art scene of Orlando with his work described as "Urban Abstractionism." I am thrilled and honored to be featuring Steven McCune who's artwork is as colorful and abstract as his personality. Steven is excited to show his artwork to the Sarasota community and is even more excited about the live-action painting he will be bringing to our G2H2 audience.
It will be fun for people to watch - and I'll even let
people take a few strokes as part of the process.
- Steven
