Linda Lee Calvan Drake, Featured Artist
Selected works from “Vintage Views of Old Point Richmond Town”
About the Artist:Linda Lee Calvan Drake, a local artist and Point Richmond native exhibits selected works from her series, called “Vintage Views of Old Point Richmond Town” at the Arts of Point Richmond Artists Series on Tuesday, October 18th, 7-9pm. Drake embraced Point Richmond, the area in which she was raised, and used it as the source of her work, allowing her memories to become her inspiration.
“I illustrate colorful whimsical interpretations of Victorian residences on the hills of Point Richmond, treasured beaches, boats, secret places and vintage buildings,” said Linda Lee Calvan Drake. “I call this series of images Vintage Views of Old Point Richmond Town. As a Point Richmond native, I have always appreciated the ability of Point Richmond to be an oasis in our reality. Each Victorian home brings interest to the present with surprising tales from the past. I have collected many of the vintage tales from family and friends in Point Richmond. Illustrating, painting and writing allow me to share this knowledge with some artistic license.”
