Here are more images of Caira Hart's paintings.

Check out the covers for Paula Busch and Shawn O'Malley Rippner's 2016 Open Studio Art Tour mags. Proceeds from sales benefit the Chico Art Center, and help spread the word about some fantastic local artists. Same interior content but different covers.

Another fantastic artist on the Chico Art Center's Open Studios Art Tour, Jerry Miller. Jerry is a Drama instructor at Butte College, a local theater actor and director, and a painter. Love his work, and had to purchase one of his crow paintings when I visited (the far left crow is mine now :-).

I visited twenty-six art studios this past weekend for the Chico Art Center's Open Studios Art Tour. Gary Baugh was one of the artists. Love the style and colors in his work.

The Chico Art Center's Open Studios Art Tour is over for another year. The first studio I visited yesterday, was Jon Shult's studio in Oroville, so Jon gets to be the new Cover Artist today. Here are a few pics of Jon's studio, some paintings, and a couple of comic book pages he illustrated many years ago.

If you're looking for some great local art classes for yourself or your kids, stop by the Chico Art School & Gallery in downtown Chico.

Our new Cover Gallery artist for this Friday is local Paradise artist, Janet Weidel. Take a look at a few of her beautiful nature and landscape paintings. You can find more of her work for sale at the Chico Paper Company in downtown Chico.
