Each month new artists display their talents at the Lakehills Area Library. During August, two artists are now on exhibit.
John Tucker has exhibited before and is a stanch supporter of the library and a member of the Alamo Area Woodcarvers Group. He is back with more of his amazing creations, all carved in different woods. He can reached at 830-535-6578 or [email protected].
A new exhibitor, Robert Arredondo, makes his debut with wonderful paintings, all on wood. He began working with wood while still in high school and two of his pieces won First Place at the State Fair. Some of his work is displayed at the San Antonio airport and one of his sculptures is in downtown San Antonio. He can be reached at 210-843-1143.
