On Saturday night we went to the opening reception of the 100th California Art Club gold medal exhibit at the Pasadena Museum of California Art for a very enjoyable evening with many of California’s finest landscape and figurative painters, including Jeremy Lipking, Steve Huston, and Richard Schmidt (who literally wrote the book on California landscape painting).
I had the privilege of collecting a gold medal on behalf of my colleague Bela Bacsi, who was honoured for his marble sculpture Camouflaged.
