Selected Conference Presenters (Author)
The Representational Art Conference 2015 was held in Ventura California. Visitors to the event enjoyed demonstrations of painting, drawing and sculpture by master artists from around the world, and heard inspiring presentations about a broad variety of topics by leading figures in the revival of representational art. The conference included off site trips in convoys of buses that carried enthusiastic members of the TRAC community to five gallery exhibits. This volume contains a record of many of the papers and speeches that were presented at the conference.
