SUMMARY:October Members Meeting and Demonstration by Gary Tucker!
DESCRIPTION:Our October Members Meeting will be  in person on October 16\, 2025 from 7 – 9 pm at the Amherst Community Church\, 77 Washington Hwy\, Snyder\, NY. ( Lots of parking behind the facility.) Snacks provided by our Hospitality Committee. \nAfter a brief Members Meeting bringing us up to date on our  Fall 2025 Exhibition’s Reception and Awards Ceremony on October 18th\, and\, highlighting other  upcoming events for 2025-26\, we will be treated to a demonstration by our Fall Workshop Artist\, Gary Tucker.  \nAbout the Artist: \nGary started to make art his life path while still in high school under lifelong mentor Anita Fahs. Eventually Gary was drawn east to Boston where he met Professor Kaji Aso at the SMFA. Professor Aso introduced eastern aesthetic\, calligraphy and sumi painting. Gary graduated to the media of watercolor and found he could achieve more subtlety\, power and expressiveness in his painting. \nArtist’s Philosophy: \nWhat is the place of the artist in society? I feel the artist to be caretaker of the heart. Human beings have empathy for each other\, for other creatures\, even for plants. The artist values this empathy. This empathy leads them to the heart of human beings\, and the artist seeks to move the hearts of others through their artwork. \nTo communicate through any medium\, we need to understand how to employ our craft. We learn this through immersion. We study nature\, we look to the great art of our predecessors\, we train our eyes\, our ears\, our mind and our heart to become more perceptive\, more sensitive so that we may say something more. A good teacher will emphasize the fundamentals until the student becomes the artist. The fundamentals are constant through every culture\, every medium and every masterpiece. \nSee Gary Tuckers’ website: www.GaryTuckerartist.com for more information and images. \n
