The Ventura County Creative Artists will hold their semi-annual art exhibit, Nov. 4 and Nov. 5 from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm at Bert Collin’s West Hills Gallery at 1545 Cuyama Rd., Ojai. The multi-media show, “Fur, Fin & Feathers” will highlight animal art among other subjects. This will be an art and fun-filled afternoon. Meet many of the artists in person, and watch demonstrations of some of the techniques and materials used. Pastels, oil, acrylic, encaustic and watercolor will be among the varied mediums exhibited at the show. Many of the artists are talented in pet portraits, not to mention humans. With holidays around the corner this is a good place to shop and also plan a portrait (pet or human) commission.
