Lunch and Learn Series with Deseret Book Artists and AuthorsEvery Friday, 11:30 a.m.-1:30 p.m., Downtown Deseret Book Store, SLC, Utah
Mar. 15: David Lindsley
At age 11, he studied with legendary artist Jon Gnagy and later received art scholarships for college and university training. David has also studied with artists Daniel Greene and Tom Browning. From 8x10-inch miniatures to 8x10-foot murals, he works exclusively in oils and has created commissioned works for private collections, colleges, publications, and corporations. Mar. 22: Mary Summerhays
Mary studied art at BYU and later apprenticed with J. Kirk Richards. Her watercolors often depict an Edenic garden, but are often infused with personality traits of her loved ones. But their spectrum is broad enough to include the Lord’s generosity to his children. She has received awards from Museums and competitions, and illustrated for documentaries on BYUTV, but she says, "nowhere is my art more meaningful than hanging in our home." Come hear her insights on art and religion at her lecture this month.
