9:30am |<\/strong> In its new location on the North West corner of 4th and Linden, Lyon Art Supply<\/a> continues to be a celebrated regional resource for artists of all kinds.  Art Martinez, the store manager, has been quietly organizing local artists to gather tomorrow for a unique presentation of live painting, music, and good times. I asked Art how the event, called Lyon At Night, came to be.<\/p>\n

Art<\/strong>: I wanted to use the space to add to the local art scene.  I invited 20 or so artist friends to show their work, and a few bands to fill the space. This will be the first event of this kind for us and, if it works, I’m thinking about 2nd Saturday in December as well. I think the store should<\/strong> be involved in the ‘art walk,’ and this is how we’re going to do it. [laughs] I want to offer more than what’s already going on.  We’ll offer more to do, see, and experience. More is always better, I think.<\/p>\n

Sander<\/strong>: Can you talk about a few of the artists you’re expecting?<\/em><\/p>\n

Art<\/strong>: Live painters Michael Pukac<\/a>, Steven Kleindorfer, Steven Amado<\/a>, with Ray and Cora Vasquez and Margie Darrow<\/a> painting panels supplied by Tinderbox. Some artists, including Jennifer Tenace, Alex Rips, and Pete Buchan will be selling work.  Craft Mafia will be there as well.<\/p>\n

Sander<\/strong>: And what about music?
<\/em><\/p>\n

Art<\/strong>: Music starts at 7 PM, and will feature Poe & the Nightingale, Paper Kites, and Dennis Robicheau & The Sophisticates. We’ll also have DJs, on and off, starting at 4 PM. It is a very positive event to add to the Citys growing art scene.<\/p>\n

\"\"Michael Pukac is one of the featured ‘live painters’ scheduled to participate in tomorrow’s gathering.  He explained how he discovered that his talents as an artist had commercial potential.<\/em><\/p>\n

Michael<\/strong>: I’ve been drawing and painting for as long as I can remember, but the first time that I found out that I could benefit from it was in fourth grade. I’d make ‘nudy’ drawings for the eighth graders in exchange for their snack money. They would give me a photograph to work from. I specialized in bathing suit removal.<\/p>\n

Sander<\/strong>: Is the process of ‘live’ painting different than the work you do in your studio?<\/em><\/p>\n

Michael<\/strong>: Yes, a little. The speed and focus is brought up a notch. I feed off of the audience’s energy. Its great!<\/p>\n
