Josh Flores: Big Feels - Featured August Artist at the San Geronimo Valley Community Center

The San Geronimo Valley Community Center proudly presents the artwork of Josh Flores in the Living Room of the Maurice Del Mue Galleries. There will be a reception for the artist on August 9 from 2 - 4 pm. Josh has previously exhibited work in the San Rafael Youth In Arts Program “What About Age?” exhibit at the Marin Civic Center and the “One If By Land, Two if By Sea” show at the Bolinas Art Museum. This is Josh’s first solo exhibition at the Community Center. Artist bio: Josh Flores was born in Lima, Peru and raised in Marin. He appreciates the experience of taking a blank piece of paper and going through the process of making something as a reminder to himself that he is capable of anything. His earliest influence to make art came from watching amateur anime, reading manga and his first art teacher Mr. Powell. Artist statement: Titled “BIG Feels” the inspiration for his first solo show came from his recent birthday, when he experienced emotional sadness related to fear of abandonment. He created the first piece titled “Sad Boi Birthday” to illustrate the depth of the emotion he was feeling. Each piece is created with a graphite sketch followed by ink and alcohol marker.
