Join us at The Old Bakery & Emporium on Saturday, March 30th from 1-4 pm for the opening reception of "Eyes to See". The exhibition features the work of native Texan artist and retired military veteran Kurt Ritterpusch.
Eyes to See is a collection of works representing three years of Kurt's recent paintings. Inspired by the beauty of America, Kurt's work depicts the organic, inorganic, rural, and urban. His work aspires to truly see his subjects, not just look at them.
Using value, color, shape, and lines, Kurt attempts to capture the world and create compositions that direct the viewer’s eyes to interesting facets of our environment and world.
The event will feature live music from Texas musician Long Prairie.
