The theme, 'Still…', is deliberately flexible to allow for creative interpretation. A painting might be called 'Still Married', another might be 'Still Life', and yet another 'The Whiskey Still'. The artists are required to put the word 'Still' in the title, allowing the viewers to understand how it fits into the theme.

Installed works will be judged by renowned Central Coast artist, Jan French. Cash prizes will be awarded at the artist reception on Saturday, May 2, from 4:30 to 6pm. 

For generations, artists and craftspeople have transformed wood into objects of beauty, utility, function and fascination. Wood has long been a defining function of Cambria from its earliest days as “Slabtown” and a lumbering center for its Monterey pines to its current installation of driftwood huts along Moonstone Beach.

The Cambria Center for the Arts invited four local creators to showcase their work in this unique show. Each explores woods from a totally different perspective, from furniture to kitchen utility to pure creative expression. Featuring Steven Beck, Brooks Lawrence, Jim Rogers and Bill White

RECEPTION
Please attend an opening reception for the show on Saturday, June 6 from 4:30 to 6:00 p.m. Enjoy complimentary snacks; wine available for purchase.

George Scribner is a painter, animator and filmmaker whose work is characterized by a rich use of color and attention to both shadow and light. His journey has been his road to excellence, with a focus on the pauses along the way. Mr. Scribner's oil paintings visually capture moments in time. His subject matter ranges from evocative street scenes to picturesque landscapes. 
Local artists will add to this exhibit and are encouraged to follow this broad theme in any way they can imagine.
 

Margaret Biggs is a Cambria-based artist whose stylized realism opens the mind to imagination, guiding viewers toward awareness and a deeper understanding of their inner lives. Her paintings invite reflection, encouraging viewers to slow down, set aside judgment and discover what quietly reveals itself.

Her work is held in private collections across the country and is featured in hospitality, healthcare and corporate collections nationwide.
