At WholeFamily MD, we believe that nourishing your brain and spirit with beauty and community contributes to health and well-being. Please join us for some of this nourishment at an art reception in our office on Sunday, March 18, from 3-5pm. We are welcoming our newest waiting room gallery feature: beautiful pieces from local abstract painter Tachina Rudman-Young.

The event is free and all are welcome. Refreshments will be provided. Please let us know if you can join us!

Tachina Rudman-Young is an artist and creativity facilitator. She uses a playful, intuitive approach to create large, vibrant, abstract paintings. Drawing inspiration from nature, and informed by her background in ceramics, she infuses her canvases with super pumped-up, saturated color, over layers of interesting textural background. Anything from broken forks, bubble wrap, pencil shavings, to old toothbrushes might find their way onto her canvases.

Before painting, Tachina worked primarily with the figure in clay, and showed her work in various juried and group shows throughout the Bay Area. An exhibiting member of ACGA (Association of Clay and Glass Artist of California) since 2004, she received two degrees from San Francisco State University in Fine Arts (Ceramics) and Dance (Performance, Education, Ethnology). Tachina is committed to the use of art and movement as a means to joy, self-empowerment, and healing through self-expression.
