Since the closing of the Texas 2 OCTOBER FEATURED ARTIST TROY KNIGHT Troy Knight’s interest in photography began when he was 18 years old and stationed in Korea 17 miles from the DMZ. He purchased a camera from the PX and took snapshots of this unfamiliar environment. His first camera was a Kodak Signet 80, a great choice for a rank beginner. The Korean landscape was bleak, the faces of his buddies were sad and the Koreans were living in desperate times. Troy’s black-and-white photos reflected these aspects of his army life. After leaving the Army, he continued to take photos with the Kodak, filling albums with pictures of new babies, new cars, and family events. He didn’t have any formal training but did take a few community classes. As he traveled more, Troy moved on to larger and more up-to-date cameras, and finally went from film to digital photography as he realized that his camera could be an artistic tool. It was after visiting the GAL gallery that he decided the time had come to show some of his work. His first juried show entry received a ribbon. Expanded leisure time now allows Troy to use his camera daily to capture the essence of a culture, the spirit of a landscape, and the heart of a story. “My camera is always close at hand and it is a joy to know that some of my pictures have emotionally touched others and are now in their homes, that I get to share the story of these photos with others and that I get to continue to grow as a photographer.” Troy Knight 3 Sandy Lamoey indulges her love of art through painting. She began painting watercolors in a traditional realistic vein, but evolved into an abstract style combining painting with beautiful handmade fiber paper from Asia as seen in her “Space Series” - Ice & Mind and Ancient Abyss. She also paints abstracts in oil using vivid colors and shapes to capture the imagination as seen with Stellar Spectra. Sandy majored in graphic design at Ohio University, with typography and illustration foremost in her education. For many years she lived and traveled in Europe, visiting museums and studying the works of the masters and the modern artists of today that have influenced her work. Sandy may be contacted regarding her artwork at [email protected] or visit her Facebook page Sandy Lamoey – Art & Abstracts . Stellar Spectra Ice & Mind Ancient Abyss 4 Students and clients at two local facilities serving persons with disabilities will display their works at the gallery during December. Selected works by clients/students at the facilities will be featured. A reception/member viewing party will be held on December 13. The Transitional Learning Community (TLC) provides post-acute rehabilitation services aimed at community reentry for survivors of brain injury. TideWay is an assisted living facility providing long-term care and rehabilitation services for adult survivors of brain injury who cannot live independently. The Sunshine Training Center offers day habilitation, community support, and supportive employment to individuals with developmental disabilities. Programs facilitate the development of skills such as decision-making, punctuality, problem solving, following multi- step instructions, and working individually and as part of a team. Art activities are integral to the programming for clients at each of these facilities. According to Mary Arlis Fountain, a therapeutic art specialist with TLC/TideWay, art classes at her facilities entail more than just teaching techniques but are coordinated with staff to help clients overcome physical, cognitive, and emotional challenges while making art. According to Ms. Fountain, her TLC/TideWays clients are, “…the hardest working students I have ever had the pleasure of teaching.” Margo Shared History Marian Wood was a long- time director of the Sunshine School (now Center). She served as president of the Galveston Art League from 1961 to 1965 and again from 1974 to 1979. 5 JUDGE’S STATEMENT First of all, I want to say what a magnificent facility you have! It was an honor to be the juror for the 2019 Fall Juried Galveston Art League show. I know this sounds cliché but it’s true, it was not an easy show to judge. Oh my goodness! There is some fantastic work here. So many different styles and executed so well. I mainly looked for mastery of design/composition, technique, knowledge of media used, color and overall impact of the piece. There were so many that met all of these qualifications. Unfortunately, I had to narrow it down to what was going to be in the show and then what were the top two each category and Best of Show. It was actually painful and difficult to leave any of the pieces out of the show because I was there once many years ago. I know what it’s like to not “get in.” If you didn’t get in, please don’t be discouraged. This is just one show. If you are BEST OF SHOW determined to improve your skills and not give up Leroy LeFlore there will be many more shows that you will “get in” Works on Canvas/Panel and WIN! “Pelicans Hobnobbing” Congratulations to those of you who placed.

  • Galveston Military Tourism Itinerary
    GALVESTON MILITARY TOURISM ITINERARY Few destinations have weathered the test of time through war, colonization and natural disaster and lived to tell the tale like Galveston. Steeped in American history, the island offers veterans and history buffs alike a chance to discover remnants of its fascinating past. USS Cavalla and USS Stewart Check out Seawolf Park for a quick brush up on Texas naval history. The park serves as the berthing place of the WWII submarine the USS Cavalla, a memorial to the lost submarine USS Seawolf. The Cavalla was commissioned in February 1944 by the Electric Boat Company and is known for sinking Shokaku, a 30,000-ton aircraft carrier and Pearl Harbor veteran. In 1971, the USS Cavalla was delivered to her permanent berth in Galveston. Alongside the USS Cavalla at Seawolf Park lies the USS Stewart, one of only two surviving destroyer escorts in the country. You’ll have a chance to examine Stewart’s artillery and even peer through grates with views into the engine room. Seawolf Park’s remarkable history will have you yearning to learn more, so plan on spending an hour or two here. S.S. SELMA Steel shortages during World War I led the United States to build experimental concrete ships, the largest of which was the SS Selma. Today, the ship is partially submerged in Galveston Bay. Built in Mobile, Alabama, the ship was launched the same day Germany signed the Treaty of Versailles, officially ending World War I. As a result, the 7,500-ton ship never served during the war but instead was placed into service as an oil tanker in the Gulf of Mexico.
