Fresh Gallery – Featured Artist for June Alicia Farris – Springfield, MO

Featured artist for the month of June is Alicia Farris. Farris is one of the original members of Fresh Gallery, having been a member since its inception over seven years ago.  Farris is currently serving as Gallery Coordinator and loves being involved in every aspect of Fresh.

Farris paints in acrylic, oil and is a nationally known watercolor artist.  She strives to capture her subject matter, whatever it may be, by reflecting and creating light, color and mood to stir the viewer’s emotions.  Her work has been exhibited with such organizations as the Western Federation of Watercolor Societies, Southwestern Watercolor society, Missouri Watercolor Society, Missouri Valley Impressionists Society, St. Louis Watercolor Society, Watercolor USA, and has been honored with multiple awards over the years.  Farris loves and is inspired by sharing her knowledge through teaching workshops and classes throughout the Midwest.  She teaches locally through the Springfield Regional Arts Council and at Splatter Art Studio in Springfield.  Her teaching schedule can be found on her website, www.afarris.com.

For the month of June, Farris will be showcasing new works in both acrylic and watercolor.  Her works range from detailed to ethereal. Farris captures emotion and makes the subject come to life on her canvas.  It will be a must-see exhibit.

In addition to exhibiting at Fresh Gallery year round, Alan O’Neal will have an exhibit of 20 or more of his images at the Neosho Arts Gallery in the Chamber of Commerce building during June.  The Chamber of Commerce is located at 216 W Spring Street in Neosho, MO.  They will host a reception for the exhibit on June 14th from 5pm until 7pm. Fresh Gallery is always proud to announce the additional endeavors and honors our members participate in.
