Teen potters, painters amd mixed-media artists will fill Prima Tazza, 8835 Line Ave (adjacent to Outback Steakhouse) on Fri evening, say teachers Shirlene Alexander and Holli Hennessy. From 6 to 7:30 pm there will be a gathering of some of the city's most avid young artists and supportive art teachers in the Prima Tazza gallery.

Expect adjunct teachers such as Laura Noland-Harter and Marabella Dunn, Caddo art superviser Henry Price and ArtBreak manager Julia Foley.

Too, expect a melee of color, media and forms from the teens. Pencil, crayon, scratch board, acrylics and batik are among the myriad media.
Raku and bisque bowls and platters will be on view, too. Some have been painted in homage to the great 20th century artists, says Hennessy.

The work will remain on view through Feb 29.

I am a photographer for KTAL and a while back we did a story on the big art shin-dig down at the Shreveport convention center. I remember that particular painting so well. It caught my eye and I made sure to feature it in the story. What an awesome artist!
