elm studio From weapons to watercolors...see how one artist went from a 30-year career in law enforcement to painting the delicate facets of crystal vases, teacups, and vintage quilt. This solo exhibition of Connie Logan Levsen is on view until May 30. A reception is scheduled for April 24 from 6-8pm. Connie Logan Levsen: I think of my paintings as a “moment in time” depicting ordinary objects and extraordinary people. My artwork does not take critical views of social, political or cultural issues. I strive to paint interesting objects and people using vivid colors and light, simply because I find it enjoyable and challenging. I have always loved art, but like many others I spent most of my time and energy earning a living in a more traditional way. In 2008, I retired after 30 years plus in law enforcement. Now I have time to paint…and paint…and paint. From the Gallery: Mrs. Levsen, like many other artists, is quite modest about her work. She has an eye for detail and beauty in the everyday object. Her work will make a lovely addition to a refined collection. We hope you will take this opportunity to visit Elm Street Studio to see these select pieces. 139 S. Elm Street, Keller TX 76248 www.elmstudio.co / 817-562-2323 A portion of art sale proceeds from this show will benefit the Tarrant Area Food Bank
