Join us at the Goldmark Cultural Center from 1:00pm - 2:00pm on Thursday, 3/3, for another presentation in our monthly Artist Talk & Tour series.
The featured Goldmark artist for February is Eliana Miranda.
Eliana's demo presentation focuses on the wood panel as a versatile surface that can be used for a variety of mediums including painting and drawing. Eliana will demonstrate how to make a wood panel using power tools as a cost efficient method for artists who produce a lot of work.
The presentation will be held in the auditorium space at 14001 Goldmark Dr, Dallas TX, 75240, and it will conclude with a visit to Eliana's studio at the Goldmark Cultural Center
