Chapman University's Office of the President
November 17, 2015
Celia Garrett and her daughter Kelly surprised me with a visit today to my office. Celia graduated from Chapman in 1948. She is 87 years young. What a vibrant, sweet and beautiful lady with the bluest eyes I’ve ever seen. She told me that she’s disappointed that none of her kids or grandkids followed her example of going to Chapman, but she asked if I could help persuade her 5 year-old great-grandson, Lee, to attend Chapman. I told her I’d get right on it. JLD

"Preston Blair was born in Los Angeles in 1908 and by the time this work was created he was employed by Disney, drawing for animated films such as Pinocchio and Fantasia. Blair was first and foremost an animator and his works of California scene painting, like Bunker Hill, were side projects he created in his free time. With this knowledge, it is easy to see the influence animation had on his watercolor paintings." -Maddie Anderson, Chapman student, writing for our collections blog: https://blogs.chapman.edu/collections Preston Blair "Bunker Hill" Watercolor on paper, 1938 Hilbert Museum #prestonblair #disney #disneyanimation #animation #illustrators #californiaartists #californiaart #hilbertmuseum #ChapmanUniversity #chapmanu #watercolor #californiascenes #painting #art #fineart #museum

Students at Chapman’s Harry and Diane Rinker Health Science Campus had better beware: to a meandering zombie, these large canvases might appear quite delectable! Peter Kogler is an Austrian artist who receives his artistic inspiration primarily from science and technology, uniting two very different schools of thought in a single form of expression. Specifically in his pieces Brain CA (Green) and Brain CA (Pink), one can see how Kogler’s fascination with the texture, shape, and depth of a human brain was translated into two hypnotic depictions. #PeterKogler #Kogler #art #contemporaryart #fineart #brain #brains #brainca(green) #eerie #eerieart #creepy #ChapmanU #chapmanart #EscaletteCollection #scienceandart
