About the artists:
The lineup is set for the big April painting show to be held at Blue Genie Art Industries on April 16-17. The show features a strong and diverse mix of painters from the Austin area.
Chris Chappell continues his explorations of space and color using slightly skewed cityscapes to portray the beauty his eye sees in the architecture laying waste to this proud city.
Tim Doyle's pop inspired paintings show the influence of his comics and zines.
Holly Fisher, who also has a strong animation background working in Bob Sabiston's studio, creates lushly painted canvases in an intimate painterly style.
Jeanne Hospod's figurative work concentrates on vibrant colors and an uncanny knack for representing the figure.
Meg Renwick teaches at Laguna Gloria and has been concentrating on painting her somewhat surreal visions for over a decade. San Marcos' resident painter
Grady Roper combines the illustrative nature of his cartoon work with carefully crafted painting techniques. The slyly tongue-in-cheek figures that live in
Michael Schliefke's paintings often revel in the seedier side of the alley, making nods to various painters through history along the way.
