Artful Inches Fundraiser | Support the Kids!
Escondido Municipal Gallery

Artful Inches funds the student show at EAP. Volunteer artists
come in at their convenience and do a quick bit of artwork.
Once the paper is completely filled, it is then sold by the square
inch to the public. People take a mat of a measurement of their
choosing... 5x7, 8x10, up to 16 x 20... and hold it up to the long
artwork until they find an area that is pleasing to them. That area
is marked off, the person pays for it and, when it is time for all
the pieces to be cut out, they can then pick up their artworks and
hang them proudly on their homes. The areas that are not chosen
will be cut into cards/bookmarks that will be available for sale
until all are gone.

Reviews:
“Chuck McPherson is the ultimate entertainer and watercolor artist.
He can finish a boldly colorful and beautiful watercolor in a matter
of hours while entertaining and astonishing a crowd of on-lookers.
He also paints soft watercolor scenes and meticulously detailed oil
paintings. Everyone needs art in their life and Chuck's art will enliven
any space in your home or office, bringing a smile to your face.
I highly recommend purchasing his art.”

San Diego Botanic Gardens (formerly Quail Gardens)

Reviews:
“I truly enjoyed your demo and especially
your very British sense of humour at the
Quail Gardens meeting.”
“Chuck is the consummate artist with a wide
range of styles. Chuck's workshops are not only
instructional, but highly entertaining as well.
I recommend him as an exceptional art teacher
and as someone whose paintings you would
want to have in your home or office.”
