Second Saturday Art a Tribute to Firefighters
September 11, 5:00 - 9:00 p.m.Fireman by Tom Hutchinson  | Tom's art focuses on the noble and courageous work of Firefighters.
"Always a fan of the thrill, in my art I try to capture the beauty and
grace of a moment in the action of doing something with inspiration and
passion."
Tom has been a Firefighter Paramedic with Metro Fire for more than 15 years.
As
a teenager, he studied painting and drawing in High School with friend and
neighbor Janie Erickson. Tom later took up sculpture and mixed media at American
River College, Sac State and Long Beach State, before
changing focus to study
fire science. American Visions is proud to add Tom Hutchinson to our list of talented and respected artists in the community.
Join us in paying tribute to September 11 and to his work.
