First Tuesday Artwalk

Need an Updated Head Shot That Actually Feels Like You: Multi-Faceted Marin Photographer Harrison Boyd Has You Covered – June 16th, 10am-3pm, Township Sausalito, 3000 Bridgeway, Suite 100!

After photographing the Golden Gate Bridge intensively for two years, I indeed came to see it anew. What I found most impressive, even more than the span’s status as an engineering and architectural icon, is its power as a symbol of possibility. When it was first proposed, naysayers declared there was no way to build what was then the tallest and longest suspension bridge in the world over such a treacherous strait. Undaunted, Joseph Strauss, the Golden Gate’s visionary chief engineer, replied, “Our world  today  revolves completely around things which at one time couldn’t be done because they were supposedly beyond the limits of human endeavor. Don’t be afraid to dream.” I dedicate Thirty-Six Views of the Golden Gate Bridge to this spirit of possibility.

Longtime Tam High art teacher Zachary Gilmour, who is largely responsible for supporting the array of creative artwork from his students that ends up being showcased each year, is showcasing his students’ drawing and painting work on the walls of the Mill Valley Chamber’s space at 85 Throckmorton Ave., including a reception on May 6th, 5:30-7:30 as part of the Mill Valley Arts Commission’s First Tuesday Artwalk. The student’s work focuses on “In Our Community.” Acrylic paintings on canvas by Intermediate Drawing & Painting. Students were asked to paint an acrylic painting of a member of our community. Students chose teachers, school staff members, coaches, people who work in local businesses, and family.
