    If you haven't been up to the Colorado Springs School (CSS) recently, Mark Brasuell's opening reception at the Louisa Performing Arts Center on Friday, January 11th, 2008 from 7 – 9 p.m is a great opportunity. The artist will give a gallery talk. "Mark Brasuell: Magellan (A Continuing Journey)" will feature recent and retrospective acrylic paintings and oil pastels. Brasuell, a Texas born artist, moved to Colorado in 1987 to escape sandstorms and live in a place that is beautiful and green. A founding member of EDGE Gallery in Denver, Brasuell is also an adjunct instructor at Metro State College of Denver. He holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts in painting, drawing, and jewelry from Texas Tech University, and a Masters of Fine Arts in painting, sculpture and intermedia art from The University of Denver. His works focus on a term he calls “conceptual abstraction.” The works are based on color, action, and some personal and emotional "ideas". There is usually a background and foreground, vibrant and moody colors, and an occasional ghostly image or two. “I want people to make up their own minds about exactly what these images age, but I try to point the view in a particular direction, said artist Mark Brasuell. “I want people to enjoy my artwork and to see something new in the paintings every time they view them.” Works on exhibit will be available for sale and purchases benefit The Colorado Springs School Visual and Performing Arts Series.
