Society of Bluffton Artists in Bluffton, SC, Features Works by Helen Evans

The Society of Bluffton Artists (SoBA) will present the exhibit, Thru My Eyes, featuring works by Helen Evans, on view from Nov. 16 through Jan. 4, 2010.

After a career as a legal secretary and raising a family, Evans went back to school and studied art at the College of DuPage. Initially working in clay as a ceramic artist, she studied under internationally known artist Jaime Suarez. Evans gradually switched to painting and began her artistic endeavors in Liturgical Art, making pulpit hangings and banners for churches in Illinois, Utah and Puerto Rico.
 
Evans says, "I don't have a 'style', the subject determines how it will be handled and what medium will be used. I am attracted to a subject because it may present a challenge, it may evoke a pleasant memory or one of melancholy - a subject that speaks to me in some way." For Evans, art has been a journey of not only learning the basics of laying on color, but of expressing who she is and what she feels through her work. Her show will feature landscapes and florals.
