ADSO July Speaker
Renee Broxson, artist, tennis teaching professional and animal rescue supporter, spoke at the Arts and Design Society Luncheon in July. Introduced to art at an early age by her artist mother, Renee’s love of art quickly developed, but she did not immediately take up painting. In 2018, she completed the Creative Visionary Program at Art2Life and has never looked back. She uses a variety of materials to add texture and interest to art influenced by childhood memories and everyday experiences. Her goal is two-fold: to continue developing her artistic skill and capture interest in her art from collectors so that she can donate a large portion of her proceeds to animal rescue efforts in Northwest Florida. She serves on the Board of Directors of Dog-Harmony, Inc., in Santa Rosa Beach.
ADSO Window Gallery Display: July
To provide a convenient Art Gallery for the Community, the Arts and Design Society presents month-long free exhibits in their studio windows, facing First Street, at 17 First Street, SE, Fort Walton Beach. In July, the featured artists were Trisha Gladney and Sherry Cooler, both of whom work in clay. Trisha’s work and Sherry’s work are colorful and unique.
Both are teachers in ADSO’s twice-weekly pottery classes. Contact ADSO at adso@artsdesignsociety.org or go by the office, Tuesday-Friday, noon-4 pm.
