ON THE COVER
Vicki Andersen, Gate, Mesilia, NM, Acrylic. "I love color and I feel that it shows in my paintings. I like to work quickly and can hardly wait to get through the design-drawing phase to the actual act of painting. I often jokingly say that I don’t think when I paint. In truth, I realize that I do plan and compose each peace completely in my head. When I paint it actually seems to fall off my arm onto the canvas…to flow right out of my 'minds’ eye'." - Vicki

A WALK THROUGH THE CYPRESS • BY ELIZABETH MONKS HACK Fresh Paint Towards the end of the year we begin to reflect. At the end of this month we give thanks for all that we have. Ann Thompson, our November featured artist, reminds us through her paintings of the simple treasures and pleasures life offers us on the Central Coast. The subjects of her work cover a broad spectrum; a country road, fresh berries, chickens, donuts and coffee. The stand-out of the show is her piece “Pure Love” of a young boy holding a baby girl in a mutual gaze of joy and delight. In this simple and wonderfully conceived painting what we all live for is made apparent. Thompson is a generous artist who works tirelessly on various mural projects, commissioned portraits and interior decor. She believes that all of us are born with a gift; one that we have the potential to share with others in order to bring joy. For Thompson this gift is painting. Her works are bold and fresh and clear, like a beautiful day. Her subjects are often enlarged, and chock full of personality. Humor is a factor also, as in “Yes, You’re Annoying Me” of two blue jays on a branch. A pig and an ostrich with a party hat make an appearance. There is even a slice of heaven in “At the End of the Day.” Forms are skillfully and boldly rendered. Color assumes the aspect of fresh, delectable paint. See Ann Thompson’s show and have your senses, and sense of gratitude, renewed. Art assumes many guises; artists use a variety of means to express their innate creative impulses. In the main gallery this month Maria Slizys displays a set of intriguing collages in which she combines pieces of photographs and the skillful use of colored pencil, graphite and chalk. The results, especially in “2019 PhotoExt #2,” propel the viewer into another plane of visual experience. Photographs by Debby Fuller and Suzanne Schenck document with a keen eye the strange and wonderful. Witness a decaying truck, a pool of rubber ducks and a carnival ride, respectively. Tammy Evans’ gourd art masks are simply incredible. Large, expansive circumferences, expert craftsmanship, surprising materials and a powerful spiritual presence are musthaves for anyone with wall space.
Ann Thompson, Pure Love.
Neil Andersson, Vista Near Lake Cachuma
A comparison of brushstroke sensibility is always a pleasure in a group show. Neil Andersson’s “Vista Near Lake Cachuma” suggests an enticing landscape of vast softness, while Betsee Talavera’s “Glow” depicts a strident cypress tree in a raking light. Chris Jeszecks’s delicate colored pencil work in “Autumn Splendor” won the the People’s Choice Award for October. These are just a few of the treasures to be found at the Cypress Gallery this month, along with a multitude of artistic cards and gift items. Visit us at 119 East Cypress Avenue, Lompoc. We are operated by the members of the Lompoc Valley Art Association, a 501c(3) non-profit organization, committed to expanding and supporting access and exposure to the arts in the Lompoc and Santa Ynez Valley. Contact us: www.lompocart.org, on Facebook/Cypress Gallery. Phone (805) 737-1129. Betsee Talavera, Glow.

The Cypress Gallery is at 119 East Cypress Avenue, Lompoc, across from the Museum. Gallery hours are Tue. through Sun • 12-5 pm
Ann Thompson, Yes, You're Annoying Me
Ann Thompson, Jalama RED
Everyday Inspiration! THROUGH NOVEMBER 24, 2019 Ann is a farmer's daughter, raised in a rural western Iowa community with nine siblings. At age three Ann completed her first mural on her folk's living-room wall in crayon. Murals have been in her blood ever since! Ann's mural commissions are enjoyed in several locations in Iowa, Alaska, Washington and in California. Ann has proudly called Lompoc home for the last two decades, but for more than 40 years Ann only pursued her passion on a parttime basis, painting after hours and on weekends while working full-time. She most often paints in acrylics, but is also practiced in watercolors, pastels, oils and airbrushing. She has painted on almost every surface you could imagine. Ann's diversity comes partly from loving a good challenge and from methods learned and seeking out various new ones. Ann Thompson, Afternoon Shadows
In 2014 shortly following retirement, Ann leaped at the opportunity to paint full time. She immediately took to the position of "Curator for the Lompoc Mural Society." She loves working outside in the fresh air and meeting new people while restoring the city's murals. "It’s my dream job and I'm helping to improve the community look," she says! Although the murals tend to keep her busiest, occasionally she is commissioned to paint on canvas or something else. Ann finds her passion in everything from a white billowy clouds to a gnarled oak root and nothing is too tuff to tackle. "Everyday Inspiration” is a collection of moments that I hope conveys peace, joy, silliness, love, beauty, preciousness, …etc. I love to paint, and I hope that you delight in what inspires me, when I express myself on canvas."
COMING SOON: FEATURED ARTISTS JOELLEN CHRONES, KATHY BADRAK, AND TONI ZYBELL

Let's do the Holidays! NOVEMBER 26 – DECEMBER 29, 2019 Ann is a farmer's daughter, raised in a rural western Iowa community with nine siblings. At age three Ann completed 3 wildly creative women are coming together to share their love of color and texture. Joellen has been working with glass for 19 years. “I have 3 kilns that run quite frequently to the consternation of my husband who watches the electric meter go around. I fell in love with making glass objects when someone recommended that I make my own beads, I’ve been hooked ever since. I try to make functional pieces that people can put to good use. I like whimsical subjects, which include birds, vegetables and flowers.”
Joellen Chrones, Birds
Kathy had a Stained Glass business for a number of years, where she did commission work and taught classes. In 2009, she attended a series of workshops on weaving baskets and working with gourds. She found that gourds were the perfect medium to in which to express herself. “I love the earthy and natural appeal of gourds and often leave much of the beautiful gourd surface showing in my work. Gourd Art also allows me to continue working with the wonderful fibers and weaving materials I use in my baskets. They allow me to add interesting textures to my work. My style continues to evolve as I learn and experiment with new techniques and materials. “ Kathy Badrak, Gourds
Toni did fused glass for about 20 years. After closing her studio down in 2016, she was looking for her next creative journey. “I've always loved jewelry and have wanted to make it since I was a little girl, the perfect time was now! I started with copper enamel, moved on to hammered metal and am now working with silver. Toni Zybell, Jewelry
My need to create combined with my love of jewelry has become a perfect marriage”.

LOMPOC VALLEY MURAL SOCIETY
Rudolph Mansion mural.
Title: Rudolph Mansion Year: 1999-2000
Location: 101 West Cypress (south side of building) Artist: Leonardo Nunez, Lompoc, CA Leonardo Nunez lives and works in Lompoc, California. In addition to the Rudolph Mansion Mural, he also painted the following Lompoc murals: Raices, with Lompoc High students, La Purisima Mission, and the 1923 Honda Point Disaster, located in the Lompoc Museum. Leonardo works in a wide range of mediums including oils, acrylics, linoleum cuts and copper plate etchings. He has completed a series of small copper plate etchings of the 21 California Missions which are used to produce prints. Examples of Leonardo ‘s work may be seen on his web site at http://leonardonunez.com/. The Harvey S. Rudolph house was a large, 2-1/2 story home built in 1890. The white Victorian home, with turrets, stood on the southeast corner of F Street and Ocean Avenue. The fourteen by eighty- foot mural depicts the home as it was in about 1893.
Rudolph Mansion 1893.
The Artist spent seven months painting the mural on the exterior wall of what is now the Lompoc Sleep Shop. Nunez used a dark underpainting, covered by lighter colors to give the mural luminosity and color contrast. Doing this assured that it would remain vibrant for years.
According to the artist the “Theme of the paining is showing a different way of living that was not that long ago. And will let us compare the present with the past.” When the Rudolph home was built, it was on the edge of Lompoc’s “central business district,” which was centered at H and Ocean. It was bounded by F Street on the east, J Street on the west, Walnut Avenue on the North and Cypress. Avenue on the South. Ulysses and bike.
Eastside Ocean Ave 1890s.
In the mural the viewer is looking at the home from across Ocean Avenue and west down the south side of the street to the center of town at H street and Ocean Avenue. Immediately east of the mansion stood the old stagecoach barn. Harvey and his cousin Emma Rudolph pose in front of the Rudolph home. The bicyclist is his son, Ulysses. In front of house is a milk wagon. Oscar Fabing in his memories of early Lompoc recalled, “Our milk was delivered daily by horse and wagon by Lincoln Reed Dairy. The milk was in large cans and measured out by the quart at each home. It was poured into a container put out on the porch. The container had to have a lid otherwise the cats would drink the milk”. The Lompoc Steam Laundry of Couch & Sons and their delivery wagon is just visible behind the stagecoach. The two men hauling sacks of grain from their fields to the warehouse are the Signorelli brothers. Further west on Ocean Ave, out of sight, were several blacksmith shops, a livery stable, grocery store, hotel and bank and barber shop. Harvey Sampson Rudolph was born in 1844 in Illinois. In 1847 his father John Rudolph brought the Rudolph family by wagon train to Oregon. He married Elizabeth Pressley of Salem, Oregon in 1864. In 1873 he moved to California and was in the mercantile business in Petrolia, California from 1873 to 1876. In 1876 he moved his family to Lompoc. According to family tradition he believed that due to the temperance feature of the Lompoc Colony it would be a good place to raise his five children. He founded Rudolph s Department Store which remained in business for 30 years. Harvey was active in the development of the downtown area of Lompoc and served as the first Council President of Lompoc’s first City Council formed in 1888. At that time the council President was called “Mayor”. Harvey died in 1922 and is buried in the Lompoc Evergreen Cemetery. The Rudolph “Mansion” stood for almost another forty years. In 1940, stepdaughter of Harvey, Estelle Nichols, who had Nunez painting mural. inherited the home from her mother--the second wife of Harvey—divided the home into four or five apartments to provide lodging for Camp Cooke employees and wives. The home with its apartments was in use until the late 1950’s. It was bulldozed in the early Sixties to make room for the construction of a grocery store parking lot.
