SUMMARY:Workshops International - Nicholas Lopez
DESCRIPTION:THE NICHOLAS LOPEZ WORKSHOP HAS BEEN FILLED. \nNicolas Lopez Aroni was born in Huancayo\, Peru to a family of artists\, where art played an important role in their personal training. Nicolas developed skills in painting (excelling in watercolor)\, as well as in music and the performing arts. He graduated from the School of Fine Arts of Ayacucho\, Peru in 2007. He continued his painting studies\, with watercolor techniques as his specialty\, at the National School of Art Calors Baca Flor de Arequipa\, finishing in 2013. \nNicolas has differentiated himself from other artists with his style and subject matter\, allowing us to observe whatever captivates and amazes him with his pictorial style of seeing the world. Viewers of his award-winning work get to follow his passions and participate in his great adventure of continuous learning. \nThe Peruvian newspaper La Republica nicknamed him El Trotamundos (the globetrotter)\, after his work was awarded for two consecutive years (2014-2015) in The National Salon of Watercolor ICPNA.

SUMMARY:FEBRUARY 2025 GENERAL MEETING DEMONSTRATION WITH JUDD MERCER
DESCRIPTION:NOTE NEW MEETING START TIME: 6:00 (Pacific time)\nFrom Judd Mercer: \n“Nature is beautiful\, yes\, but it is quite indifferent to us. Downright terrifying\, sometimes. But it’s a siren’s song. We’re compelled to engage with it\, time and time again. We venture deeper\, we climb higher\, testing the waters and ourselves to see how far we can go. It’s within those wild\, secret places that awe and wonder still exist—a secret reward awaiting the hero who seeks it out. \nMaybe we’re all just trying to get back to the source when there was no ego\, no neurotic nonsense we carry around. Nature gives us that obliteration\, even in small doses. It strips everything away and leaves us saturated with a deep sense of meaning we can feel (even if we cannot put it into words). And for one small moment\, perhaps we feel complete. \nThat’s what painting landscapes means to me.”
