Awaken Coffee: Kara Lockmiller
Category: Culinary arts, food, Exhibitions, visual art and Free event
Friday, November 1 from 6-8 Awaken Coffee will host an opening reception for Kara Lockmiller.
“I am a Pop Art artist who paints in clear tonal contrasts with varying shapes and strong lines. There is a kinship between color and music – both can say what words cannot. I paint because there are no words to describe the way music makes me feel. While I can remember the lyrics to almost any song I’ve ever heard, I am most fascinated by the people who pen them.”- Kara
