“Sharing a Bit of Colored Pencil Technique”
April 24, 2018
Artist, Jean K Stephens, will give a presentation entitled “Sharing a Bit of Colored Pencil Technique” at the April 24 meeting of the Irondequoit Art Club to be held 7:30 PM at Chapel Oaks, St. Ann’s Community, 1550 Portland Ave., Rochester, NY 14621, after the club’s 7 PM business meeting.
There is no charge for this event and the site is accessible to all.
A Rochester native, Jean K Stephens, received a Bachelor of Fine Arts and Masters in Art Education from RIT. Her desire for additional training led to study with Carol Marine, John Whalley, David Leffel, Sherrie McGraw and the late Thomas Buechner. Jean’s drawings and paintings have been selected for national juried exhibitions and are included in private and corporate collections. Her oil landscapes can be viewed at Canandaigua National Bank branches in Greece, Penfield, Victor, Chili, and Webster.
A love of organic form and a spiritual connection to nature is at the heart of Jean's still life drawings and oil paintings. Natural forms are placed on manmade surfaces such as weathered wood, pages from her GreatGrandmother’s autograph book, or old postcards. Her artwork expresses an inward journey. Excitement comes where brush meets canvas and pencil touches paper, where trust allows the universal to speak. Jean offers instruction in oil painting and colored pencil drawing in her studio in Honeoye Falls.
To view samples of her work, visit www.jeankstephens.com Jean can be reached at Works Road Studio, 166 Works Rd, Honeoye Falls, NY 14472, 585624-9117.

The Art Walk at the Irondequoit Town Hall
The Irondequoit Town Hall exhibits original, fine art created by the Irondequoit Art Club (IAC), a locally-based group of eclectic artists. A different art display is shown every three months and features various media including acrylic, oil, watercolor for view &/or for sale. The pieces are located on the main floor outside and inside the Broderick Room, at the Assessor’s office and on the 2nd floor outside of administrative offices. IAC artist, Barbara Montione, is the coordinator of this display.
An added feature along the stairs is a series of permanent murals, created by IAC member Jeanette Musliner and Hollis Biggs Garver. These vignettes of Irondequoit history spanning 150 years were developed in consultation with town historian Pat Wayne. Durand Eastman Park is presented as four seasons within one painting. The Town Hall is shown as a compilation of the July 4 daytime parade and nighttime fireworks. The frames were handmade and painted to match the walls.
The Irondequoit Town Hall is located at 1280 Titus Ave, Rochester, NY 14617 and is handicapped accessible. Viewing hours are generally 9 AM to 4:30 PM. There is no entry fee. For more info, contact the town hall at 585-467-8840, or Barb Montione at 585-338-1184. For more about the Irondequoit Art Club, consult the club’s website www.irondequoitartclub.org
