Melancholy Astronaut – Steve Quevedo IAC Award of Excellence

The Irving Arts Center Award of Excellence

was awarded to Steve Quevado of Arlington for his acrylic artwork “The Melancholy Astronaut”- at the Reception & Awards Ceremony for the 31st Texas & Neighbors Regional Art Exhibition presented by Irving Arts Center and the Irving Art Association earlier this month. Overall, it was quite a showing for Arlington artists with three awards claimed by artists from the city.

James took second place in the “water-based” category for his “Put your Heart into It” and Buchanan took third place for her “Red Dot.”
