News from Deanna Clucas

Deanna continued teaching Truly Beginning Watercolor classes through July. Classes begin again in September at Brecksville Center for the Arts. Intermediate classes will also begin at Richfield Recreation Center in September following her trip to France for a painting workshop with Fred Graff.

Her one-woman show at Akron Woman’s City Club’s Gallery 732 which ended August 30 was a huge success.

She participated in the first fundraiser for the GriefCare Place of Stow at the Portage Country Club. The event was an art auction and sale to benefit the organization which offers care and grief support services.

Her list of art shows includes the WITAN French Market, Medina’s Art in the Park, Akron Arts Expo, Hudson Art on the Green, and Ohio Mart. And then there were also CVAC Members All Media Show, the annual Plein Air Painting Competition as well as River Days Plein Air Painting in Munroe Falls where she met the mayor while painting at Brust Park.

She also showed in Ohio Watercolor Society Regional Show at CVAC.

Just got word that her painting “Reflections” will be at the Millworks Gallery for the Akron Art Prize Competition sponsored by the Margaret Clark Morgan Foundation and the Downtown Akron Partnership. Big prize money for the winners will be determined by texts submitted by the public.

Although it has been a busy year, she is looking forward to her presidential duties for both the Women’s Art League and the Medina County Art League.
