Santa Cruz Art League creates an environment where local as well as regional & national artists display their art. The many classes in art and performance provide a space for learning and enhancing the creative process. Established in 1919, Santa Cruz Art League is Santa Cruz County’s longest standing Arts organization, and is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit.
Scope:
In abstract art, the artist uses a visual language of shapes, forms, lines and colors to interpret a subject-matter without necessarily providing the viewer with a recognizable visual reference point.
“Paint the struggle, Paint the joy. Paint the great beauty that is around us always and share your own personal joy in the expression of color. “
-John Maxon
