Diana Liu Benet Showcases 'Remembrance' Work at MV Chamber in June - First Tuesday Artwalk Is Here

Benet exhibits her artwork at the Mill Valley Chamber of Commerce & Visitor Center (85 Throckmorton) throughout June.

As a young girl, artist Diana Liu Benet regularly watched her father, an internationally renowned watercolorist, paint. And as she followed in her father's artistic footsteps, she realized that "despite all the beauty of his brush stroke, the bold use of color (his trademark), the gesture or implied motion, there was no shadow," Benet says.

Like many children who follow in their parent's footsteps but seek to add their own perspective, Benet took a different tack in her painting and mixed media work.
