2026 STUDIO TOUR CALL-TO-ARTISTS
The EDHAA Spring Studio Tour through artists' studios in El Dorado Hills, Shingle Springs, Rescue, & Folsom, is scheduled for Saturday, May 16 & 17. THE DEADLINE FOR APPLICATIONS IS QUICKLY APPROACHING - FEBRUARY 13!
Please know that participating in the Studio Tour does not require you to open your own home! As an artist you can elect to participate at a host's home. We have had great success in the past when three or four artists share the same location. Likewise, if you are interested in becoming a host, please know you do not need to open the interior of your home to fellow artists; instead, patio and yard spaces are wonderful options! Included as part of the Studio Tour package is the opportunity to participate in the Studio tour Preview Show at Gallery 48. All participating artists must be a member in good standing of the El Dorado Hills Arts Association. You can renew your membership for 2026 on the website at JOIN NOW. For complete details about the Studio Tour and all application forms click here. If you have any further questions please reach out to Tim Conway! Artist Spotlight: Tim Conway
Tim Conway Acrylics, Drawing, Sculpture & Wood South Pacific Island by Tim Conway My work focuses on landscapes and seascapes painted with vibrant color and intensity. The use of acrylics on canvas allows me to create realistic compositions that capture the feeling of being present in the environment. The production of art for me started in my youth and my passion grew as I studied the works of the great masters. Although I did take several wonderful art classes in college. I consider myself self-taught. Over the past thirty years I have produced several murals and dozens of illustrations and paintings. My current work is leaning towards classic landscape forms with simplified and impressionistic qualities. When producing art, I try to realistically portray the beauty of nature. I enjoy capturing the lighting on various forms and structures. I am always challenged by the elements of composition. The human mind interprets the information provided by a piece of art, and I enjoy the challenge of producing representational art. I am inspired by all the artists who have toiled for years mastering their techniques and have provided the world with beautiful art. To view more of Tim's stunning art, visit his website at timconwayart.com. Tim's work will be featured in the upcoming March issue of El Dorado Hills City Lifestyle magazine. On behalf of the association, we would also like to thank Tim for his continued efforts and ongoing preparation for the Studio Tour. Welcome New Members Debi Fisher, Oil

THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
Judy Arrigotti
Hello Members,
The year is already off to an exciting start for the El Dorado Hills Arts Association! On Saturday night, a beautiful reception was held for our “Abstract Expressions” exhibit at the Atrium Gallery in Town Center. The evening celebrated the works of three of our artists - Chris Hedges, Kenneth Mahar, and Linda Nunes. Congratulations to each of them!
Planning and preparation are already underway for our annual Studio Tour. If you haven’t already signed up, please be sure to do so by February 13. Tim Conway, along with Lynne Edwards, are working diligently to coordinate locations, publications, and the many details of this inspiring event. Artists that participate in the Studio Tour also have the opportunity to include a piece of their work in the Studio Tour Preview Show, held at Gallery 48. Registration for this event is due by March 13.
Also at Town Center are the Teaspoon Gallery and the Saturday Makers’ Market. The Teaspoon has a wonderful new exhibit featuring the work of 8 artists. Be sure to stop in and look at all of the beautiful pieces on display! The Saturday Market continues to be a great opportunity for our 2D and 3D artists to share their work with the community.
Thank you to all of the members who attended our members’ sharing meeting at the library. We are fortunate to have such a diverse and talented array of artists who consistently encourage and inspire one another. Next month, we will host an engaging presentation on “What does an art juror look for?” led by Cynthia Abraham. For a complete listing of upcoming demonstrations, please click here.
On a personal note, I have recently experienced the sudden loss of an immediate family member. The art community has always been a source of strength and support in my life, and I know it will continue to be. I want to reassure you that I remain deeply committed to my role within the association. At this time, though, I do ask for some privacy and grace as I spend time with my family processing and healing.
Judy
