Interactive Art Events from Topanga Canyon Gallery
Fun With Drawing,” Saturday, March 5, 3-5 p.m. Enjoy an interactive art experience on the patio with Debbi Green, whose paintings in the north gallery reflect her love of the beauty surrounding her. She describes some of her paintings as a tongue-in-cheek but honest mantra, representing compassion for all animals (including humans) and true respect for nature.” Moving from working in oil for 15 years, Green now plays with torn pretty papers, various pastes, oil and acrylics, mark-making with charcoal, pastels, and graphite. Green’s art invites visitors to appreciate her subtle humor as in one painting where two cows critique her work saying, “I could paint better than that.” Green’s fine art training followed a career in clothing, fabric design, and costuming in the film industry. She has been involved in Topanga’s art community for more than 15 years and has a broad following throughout Southern California.
