A new art exhibit is coming to Sacred Heart Cultural Center.
The exhibit, featuring, artists Melanie Bussey, Alissa Curtis, and Lilyan West will be open March 13 to May 3 at Sacred Heart.
Melanie Bussey
Melanie Bussey is a floral and landscape artist from Augusta. Her go-to paints are acrylics, because of their fast-drying capabilities, and watercolors, because of their atmospheric effect. Along with flowers and landscapes, she enjoy painting the occasional pet and home portrait. Expressing her creativity through painting is how she adds positivity to the world.
Alissa Curtis
Alissa Marie Curtis is a self-taught painter. Art has always been a central part of her life. She was classically trained in ballet and later danced professionally. Storytelling and expressing the human heart through movement and the visual arts is her passion. As a mother of five children, Alissa is continuously inspired by her children to create freely and without reserve. She hopes to convey beauty and grace in her work.
Lilyan West
One of her happiest childhood memories is of mixing two colors to discover they make a whole new color! She was hooked then and have been ever since. She grew up in Macon, Georgia, surrounded by azaleas, cherry trees, and dogwoods, and frequented the Atlantic coast with its moss laden live oaks. She now lives in North Georgia and often visit the mountains. These days, she finds herself painting all of the above mentioned blessings of the South and amisso thankful to live in such a special place.
The reception for the exhibit will be on March 12 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. in the great hall at Sacred Heart.
