Spotted At: North Austin Creatives
The myriad of art events and galleries in Austin and surrounding areas offers fabulous outlets for artists to share their talents, but it's the collectives and meetup groups that bring these individuals together for support and connection. One such group that knows the art of artist networking is North Austin Creatives, and through this organization I've met countless passionate arts supporters, like the one and only Stuart Wallace. As a stay at home dad, Stuart balances his time between raising a sweet little girl, working on his own eclectic art and fostering the creative community. I first met Stuart when he was leading NAC, helping coordinate and keep everyone informed about upcoming opportunities. He has since moved to Georgetown, but his spirit lives on in the group, and he's continued pursuing ways to garner more support for local artists as an active member on the board of the Georgetown Art Center. I suspect that Stuart's many travels throughout his life helped fuel his passion for preserving and appreciating the artistic elements in our culture. His wide ranging travel experiences have also had an impact on his own work, inspiring an affinity for diverse subject matter and media. Much of Stuart's art fits into the realm of Mixed Media with a knack for turning everyday found objects into something beautiful and new. Consider his series of painted moss balls or gold leafed insects. Of course, he is not tied to one genre and loves to keep experimenting. Can you imagine how clever and artsy his little one will likely grow up to be in such a creative atmosphere?! Below I've included a sampling of Stuart's work, but I have no doubt that he will keep coming up with new ideas that take him in more directions. What ties all of his work together is an insatiable curiosity, an appreciation of bright colors and a one-of-a-kind design aesthetic.
