Mullin ISD students were on hand Thursday morning at the Depot Civic and Cultural Center for the first session of artist demonstrations during the 28th Annual Stars of Texas Juried Art Exhibit.
Phillip Tester, who won this year’s Dorothy Mayes Best of Show award for his work entitled ‘Blessings,’ provided a wood carving technique demonstration while June Musick, with stabilo pencils, and Natale Radle, with spill art, also shared their knowledge.
The demonstrations run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day they are scheduled.
Prior to Thursday’s demonstrations, Mullin students toured the exhibit and provided their teachers with their picks for favorite work of art on display.

Then on Thursday, Feb. 19, Melanie Howell with acrylic on canvas, Paula Vaughn with pastels, and Tester again with wood carving techniques, will be on hand.
