Nancy Boren in the Spotlight!

Congratulations to Nancy Boren of winning Best of Show twice in a row!

Here is an excerpt from her recent email that I think you will all enjoy. 
"I am so thrilled!! The model for Spring Pink is my friend who is the mother of the young woman who posed for Queen of the Mirabella."

Below are both of her award-winning paintings. 
Congratulations Nancy! 
You make Texas proud!

Spotlight on Danny Grant

Artist: Danny Grant
City: Austin
Danny Grant (b. 1979) was born and raised in Garland, TX. He received his BFA in illustration from the Academy of Art University in 2003. At the Academy, he was most influenced by instructors Lee Ballard and Kazuhiko Sano for their superb draftsmanship and fine art approach to illustration. Upon graduating, he relentlessly sought to improve his skills in drawing and painting. In 2006, Danny moved to New York City to study with Jacob Collins at his Water Street Atelier. In 2008 his studies continued with Mr. Collins at the Grand Central Academy. There, he enjoyed a rigorous curriculum of cast drawing and painting, figure drawing and painting, and still life painting in the tradition of the European ateliers of the mid to late 19th century. Danny currently lives in Austin, TX where he paints and teaches drawing and painting. He is represented by Quent Cordair Fine Art in Napa, CA.
