MALIBU— On December 13, the Allied Artists of Santa Monica Mountains and Seashore, announced that the Golden Hour at Point Mugu State Beach scheduled for December 14, has been canceled due to fire and debris.
According to the original post advertising the event, the initial plan was for attendees to use the parking area as their meeting place. John von Buelow, the host of this month’s paint-out event, was to talk to the group about how he approaches the objects he paints.
As an artist, von Buelow has successfully mastered the ability to capture the movement of the ever-flowing waters, crashing against rocks, while the landscape behind changes vastly.
“He will tell us how he has learned to read and see the water and how it behaves with some examples from his body of work. This lecture format will allow for a different kind of discussion of artmaking, where the artists may focus on their perspective and ideas, and less on the actual production in real time.”
An Emergency Alert update was posted on the City of Malibu webpage on December 13 at 10:30 a.m. is as follows:
