Joseph Mele : Arts Benicia Open Studios,

991 Tyler Street, Benicia, CA

May 4th & 5th

I've been doing open studios for 15 years and appreciate the opportunity to invite you into my studio. Many patrons have returned year after year to see my latest work. You're welcome to visit my large and open workspace where I display works of various size and media, including minis. Primarily figurative and textural, many of the pieces are very affordable. I'll also have some installations to show the playfulness inherent in displaying my work. I'm excited to present quite a few new pieces in my Shield Series as well. This series generated a lot of interest last year and has been very popular in exhibition.

Hard Pressed: the Art of Printmaking showcases twenty-one artists from the “I-80 corridor region” of northern California (bay area, central valley and foothill) who continue to utilize “hands-on” printmaking techniques (etching, wood/linocut, monotype, etc.) to create their artwork. Participating artists include Richard Downs, Joseph Mele, Mary Coldren and Bob Leach among others.
