The Rasmussen Art Gallery on the campus of 海角视频 welcomes Wendy Liang as the guest artist for November. Her exhibit will open with a reception and artist talk from 7-9 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 10, which is free and open to the public.

In 2018, Liang has won the California Watercolor Association鈥檚 48th National Exhibition, The Artist鈥檚 Magazine鈥檚 35th Annual Art Competition, and Southwest Art Magazine鈥檚 Artistic Excellence Competition. In 2017 she received the most meaningful recognition yet for her artwork, when she won the competition of Splash 19, The Illusion of Light.

鈥淚 became interested in art as a child when I first noticed colors of objects would change depending the type of weather and the different time of the day,鈥 says Liang. 鈥淢y inspiration comes through interesting lighting, water and its reflections, and scenes that feel dreamlike or somehow ethereally familiar.鈥 

Referring to her art style as 鈥渋mpressionistic realism,鈥 Liang most enjoys painting scenes which create 鈥渙therworldly or mysterious atmospheres.鈥 Her show at the Rasmussen will include such scenes as this.

Liang鈥檚 exhibit will remain in the Rasmussen Art Gallery through December 9 (note that the Gallery is closed for Thanksgiving Break, Nov. 16-25). Gallery hours: 1-5 p.m., Thursday-Sunday.
