SUMMARY:Gainesville Goes Pop Exhibit by Chris Hobé - Smithgall Arts Center
DESCRIPTION:Gainesville Goes Pop by Chris Hobé \nThe inspiration for this body of work comes from everyday life and the layers of life that make up a whole. Each one of my pieces incorporates different layers and iconic nostalgic imagery from comic books\, music\, logos and patterns. There are always subtle subliminal messages in each piece that are drawn from pop culture and childhood. I tend to use loud and vibrant colors because nothing says in your face happiness like some bright color. Lastly\, the techniques that I use come from years of creating stencils\, painting and illustration; each piece is a mash-up of pop culture and iconic imagery created to give you a one-of-a-kind visual experience. \nAbout Chris Hobé \nCalifornia born pop artist\, Chris Hobé also known as ArtRevolts creates a box for the world to think outside of. Through Hobés use of vibrant color combinations\, eclectic and popular culture themes has made his one of a kind art pieces highly sought after. Hobés clientele includes domestic and international celebrities and avid art collectors. His work has been shown at several well known venues and establishments including art Basel Scope Art Show as a Bombay Sapphire regional finalist. Some of his collaborations include\, the W Hotels\, Jack Daniels\, Svedka Vodka\, Bombay Sapphire\, Halo Lounge\, Atlantic Station\, CBS radio\, Puma\, Lab Art\, 20th Century Fox\, Lee Daniels\, Mellow Mushroom and Raddison Red Hotel. ArtRevolts also recently exhibited a solo show at Scope Art Show Immersive Miami 2020.

SUMMARY:Foundations Of Drawing: Learning to See One-Day Workshop - Quinlan Visual Arts Center
DESCRIPTION:Foundations of Drawing: Learning to See One-Day Workshop \nThursday\, August 27\, 2026 | 10:30 AM-1:30 PM | $150\nBeginner to Intermediate \nWhether you are picking up charcoal for the first time or looking to strengthen your artistic foundation\, this one-day workshop introduces the essential principles that form the basis of successful drawing. Through demonstrations\, guided instruction\, and hands-on exercises\, students will discover that great drawing begins long before charcoal touches the paper.  \nUsing charcoal as a versatile and expressive medium\, students will explore the tools and techniques of charcoal while learning the fundamental concepts of observation\, line\, gesture\, shape\, proportion\, value\, form\, and composition. Each exercise is designed to build upon the previous lesson\, allowing students to develop confidence while creating a series of drawings that reinforce the skills being learned.\n​\nThe goal of this workshop is not simply to teach students how to draw\, but to help them learn to see the world through an artist’s eyes. These timeless drawing principles provide a strong foundation for continued growth in charcoal\, graphite\, pastel\, watercolor\, and oil painting.
