Spring weather brought out a number of Sunday afternoon
visitors to the Red Fork Art Gallery to see work by resident and
guest artists. This was a good time to visit with friends
and compare notes about recent paintings.
The Red Fork Art Gallery has been home to a group of resident
artists and special guest artists since it opened. It has
become an active studio for regular classes for adults and kids.
Shelly Ward Shelly Ward exhibits some of her many oil paintings in the
gallery as a resident artist. You will find some of Tulsa's
landmarks among Shelly's paintings on display. The B-24 bomber
behind her is a commission by a World War II veteran. She is
teaching classes for adults and kids during the week. Look for
her classes on Monday, Wednesday and Saturdays.
Veronica Foster
Few people have ventured through the Red Fork Art Gallery and
not noticed the colorful paintings of Veronica Foster. Gallery
Resident Artist Mary Jo Luster has been instructing Veronica for
over five years. She quickly points Veronica's work out to
visitors and talks about the wide range of talent in this young
artist. Veronica has gained recognition in Tulsa area art
shows and competitions. Look for her paintings on your next
trip to the gallery.
Pamela Dake
March-April Featured Artist
Pamela Dake began her artistic career as a young child under the
watchful eye of her grandmother-artist Alpha Reid of Muskogee.
She embarked on a nursing career for many years while polishing her
artistic skills. Pam found a love for bead working and has
pursued one bead after another as she produced many fine pieces.
Her current jewelry pieces are quite eye-catching. Just a note
to gallery visitors. Pam keeps her special collection of
orange and crimson jewelry at opposite ends of her display cases.
