FEATURED ARTIST FOR THE MONTH OF JULY:
JOHN STARK – OILS AND PRINTS
John Stark, Fort Wayne Art Source Teacher of the Month, showed an interest in drawing and painting; it was suggested that he study under the guidance of Lee Dohner. His art classes were held at the Eastside YMCA. This gave John something creative to do when he retired from GE in 1983. John joined the Fort Wayne Artist Guild in 1989 and the Fort Wayne Art Source in 1994. His scenes come from places he has traveled and books he has read. With encouragement from his fellow artists and friends, John has become an accomplished oil painter.
(John is not related to Bob Stark, Editor of The Waynedale News)
