Gavin Troy 

Gavin Hugh Troy from the Citizens Artists Collective   

 

CASA is delighted to have Gavin Hugh Troy as our presenter at the September 6, 2013 meeting. Gavin's topic is "Self Discovery Through Creativity." Gavin will continue with this theme in the Mini Workshop being offered that afternoon from 1:00 to 4:00 at the University of Arizona Modular Classroom. (Clean up time is from 4:00 - 4:30) The workshop will focus on clay paints (a non-toxic medium) and acrylic washes. This is a wonderful opportunity to fire up your creativity and learn from an experienced artist/educator some new techniques and materials.

 

 

Below you will find the registration form for this workshop. The fee is $40 payable with your registration and a $15 materials fee payable to the artist the day of the workshop. Mini Workshops are limited to 15 attendees, so sign up early to ensure your place.

Gavin Troy lives and works in the downtown arts district of Tucson.

 

Gavin is an artist who loves the process of being creative in many aspects of his life. You may find him riding his bike around finding an old piece of wood, taking it to his studio to give it a new life as a painting.
