Dinosaur Jr Painting by Pete Nawara

I’ve been asked once again to participate in the ‘One Inspired Evening’ art auction to help end homelessness. This time, I’ve not only been asked to donate a piece, but also to preform a live painting at the event which will go on auction that night. Please, take a look at the event information and come on by. It’s for a good cause!

  • About Pete Nawara

    It's not by chance that I have chosen the human figure, and particularly the portrait, as a subject. The human face is the most visually captivating thing a person can see, and we identify with the human body and face more than anything else. I've heard a story that when someone asked John Ford, while setting up a shoot in the desert, "What are we going to shoot out here in the middle of nowhere?" Ford replied, "I'm going to shoot the most interesting thing in the world: the human face." more
