On February 1st, Artist Armando Villarreal will be installing his February Gallery Exhibition at the Prairie Arts Center.
“That’s kinda my thing. I was always told to find a style or subject matter and stick with it cause that’s what my collectors want.. and I never could do that, I took my own path and did what I wanted. I kinda ended up just being the artist I am.” said Villarreal.
The exhibition runs from Feb. 3rd – 28th. The Artist Reception is scheduled for Feb. 10th. On the 10th, Armando will do live painting demos from 11-4 pm. Followed by the artist reception from 4-5 pm.
Villarreal is known for his hyper realistic sports portraits, live painting demos during the Super Bowl, and painting done on NFL and college teams helmets. Villarreal recently won an Emmy for tribute work done on helmets honoring two Utah Utes football players who tragically passed away.
