Sonoma Coast and Trinidad Bluffs by Dean Evans.

Main Street Arts welcomes its newest member Dean Evans. His work focuses on the coastal areas and towns that surround the San Francisco Bay. Evans seeks out the parts of the Bay that haven’t been affected too much and still retain some of the area’s uniqueness.
“Making paintings of these places is the best way I have to share my interest in their disappearing character and also preserves something of my past,” Evans said. “I grew up in the area and have seen many dramatic changes there. Now, I find myself seeking out the parts that haven’t been affected too much and still retain some of the area’s uniqueness. Making paintings of these places is the best way I have to share my interest in their disappearing character and also preserve something of my past.”
We will be open on February 2 from 6 to 9pm during Martinez First Fridays so you can be the first to view these beautiful and outstanding expressions of the Bay. A preview of the show is available at www.mainstreetarts.net.
The California Watercolor Association exhibit continues to February 25. After that we will have Assemblage Artist, Dave Kwinter’s work on our guest wall, and we invite the public to his reception on March 1 from 6 to 9pm during the Martinez First Fridays event
