Art association meeting to feature Steirnagle

FALLBROOK – The Fallbrook Art Association is pleased to have Michael Steirnagle as its guest artist for the May 20 meeting.

Steirnagle received his art training at the Art Center College of Design. He has worked as a graphic designer, freelance illustrator, college art professor for 25 years, and fine artist since leaving the commercial art world in 1990.

Steirnagle has taught numerous workshops and continues exhibiting in galleries from California, Arizona, Oregon, Virginia and North Carolina. He continues to serve on the faculty of Palomar College in San Marcos.

The meeting will be held at the Fallbrook Woman's Club, 238 W. Mission Rd., and begins at 9:30 a.m. with a critique session. Members will want to come early to sign in and get a name tag. Each member can bring one work for the guest artist to critique.

Following a short business meeting, Steirnagle will do a demonstration in oil. After lunch there will be a workshop. Those interested should contact Carol Reardon at (760) 731-6677. Workshops fill up quickly so be sure and get a check for the artist ($35 for members, $45 for non-members) to Reardon before the meeting
