Nationally-recognized muralist Roberto Regalado has created a portrait of tuba soloist Ralph Hepola. The painting has been accepted into the juried “Pure Enjoyment” art exhibit at Springfield Regional Arts Council in Missouri. Pure Enjoyment “celebrates the freedom, beauty and harmony of the natural world.” Regalado featured the sun prominently in this 50 x 50-inch work, which he painted from a photo he took of Hepola performing as direct sunlight blazed off his tuba. The opening reception is part of the October First Friday Art Walk. In-person exhibition dates are October 4-24 and virtual exhibition dates are October 1-31, 2024.
