Young artists visit, learn from one of their elders

Submitted by Walt Thacker

The youth members at the Hamilton County Artists’ Association (HCAA) took a walking field trip over to Rodney Reveal’s gallery in downtown Noblesville Wednesday evening.

Reveal is a lifelong citizen of Noblesville and is a nationally recognized artist who has his gallery located at 942 E. Maple St. He has won numerous awards and has too many ribbons on display that can be counted.

The youth members were really enthralled with the detail of his work along with his value in color. They asked many questions and got answers they could understand and put to use in their own artwork.

There is a natural kinship among artists as we all see the world around us but we have our own ways of expressing our impressions. Being an artist is a lifelong journey that begins in our youth, and it’s good to be exposed to art of all forms while in our youth.

At the HCAA, we’re all about getting fine art out in the public eye.
