Tessa Guzé, Original paintings from "Jugar", oil on canvas, 2011 |
I am having a solo exhibition of my paintings shown at the Durham Arts Council in Durham, NC. The exhibition is mostly my
fine arts painting but I have featured a selection of original paintings from a children's book I illustrated called "Jugar". Jugar is a children's book about an Indian street dog surviving his first monsoon. The opening for this exhibition is Friday, August 17th, 5-7PM.

Here a a few other pictures of the work in the show. The show is titled Beginner's Mind: Painting with an Open Heart. Beginner's Mind is a Buddhist concept of
Shoshin or "non-judging". It means having an attitude of openness, eagerness and lack of preconceptions when perceiving the world or studying a subject. The paintings in the show are mostly portraits of people from various places and cultures around the world.
