Curators for the Arts Council are Josie Gable Rodriguez, Jihmye Collins, Bonnie Woods, and Patrick McMahon. In addition to being fine artists, they are also writers and members of San Diego Writers, Ink.

The Arts Council Gallery features work of our community’s most accomplished artists who have generously agreed to donate a portion of all sales of their art to support SDW, Ink.

About the Colored Pencil Society

The San Diego District Chapter of the Colored Pencil Society of America(CPSA) is open
to all artists over the age of eighteen and all skill levels, from beginner and hobbyist to accomplished professional.

The San Diego District Chapter was founded in 1990, by more than thirty artists who had discovered each other, through workshops, local art exhibitions and other art related events. These artists gathered together and joined the newly formed Colored Pencil Society of America, as San Diego District Chapter 202.
