Learn from local artist Jeff Kapfer, who combines his graphic design influence with his childhood obsession with birds to create vibrant light-hearted paintings inspired by friends, family and everyday life. His work has been shown throughout St. Louis including Houska Gallery, SIBA Gallery and the Saint Louis Art Fair in Clayton, Mo. Drawing on Jeff’s love of birds, participants will receive their own canvas with a dove illustration to paint, taking inspiration from themes of peace and hope, which the dove represents in Judaism.
