Art at Los Medanos College

David Tallitsch's drawing class ducked out into the highly geometric halls of LMC to work on perspective drawing. There wasn't a curved piece of concrete in sight.

Here's you chance to go study in Florence, Italy with LMC's Ken Alexander. Earn transferable GE units in Italy instead of Pittsburg. It's an amazing opportunity. Check out Ken's website and learn all about the study abroad program for Spring 2010.

The Los Medanos College Art Gallery is filled with the Art from the LMC Faculty from September 1 - October 1, 2009. The show features the work of Curtis Corlew, who teaches photography and computer graphics, Ken Alexander, the department head and professor of art history and design, Rosalie Cassell and David Tallitsch who teach drawing and painting, Rebecca Talley, graphic design instructor, McKenzy Germain from computer animation, Bill Leach, the cartooning dude, Roger Yee teaches who teaches ceramics, and Lucy Snow who teaches ceramics and 3-D design.

It a wonderful new space. Painting and drawing are also next door, as are offices for professors Ken Alexander, Lucy Snow and Curtis Corlew.
