Here&#8217;s the scoop on Shaw:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/shawlenox.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Shaw Lenox<\/a> is a visual artist working primarily in acrylic&nbsp;paintings and mixed media sculptures. Her work tries to capture and celebrate the cerebral overstimulation of the world we live in through line, contrast,&nbsp;and symbols. Born and raised in San Francisco , she&nbsp;grew up biracial and bilingual; taking in both the American culture of her&nbsp;father\u2019s family and the Chinese traditions of her mother\u2019s family. Creative from a young age, Shaw grew up around her&nbsp;father\u2019s stained glass shop, taking in as much of&nbsp;the medium of stained glass as she could. She&nbsp;started painting in middle school, but took to it as a way to express herself in college. Influenced by her&nbsp;father\u2019s craft and her&nbsp;Chinese heritage,&nbsp;her&nbsp;paintings sometimes include lines that&nbsp;reference to the leading in stained glass as well as Chinese words. She&nbsp;has had works included in student art shows at Skidmore College as well as staged her&nbsp;own solo show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Event date:&nbsp;Saturday, October 23, 2021 &#8211; 5:00pm to 8:00pm<br>Event address:&nbsp;Reach and Teach, 144 W. 25th Avenue, San Mateo, CA 94403-2208 (<a href=\"https:\/\/shop.reachandteach.com\/directions-and-hours\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">click here for directions<\/a>)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The amazing Shaw Lenox will be sharing incredible abstact art creations that you can simply look at and find awe [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":311,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[55,54,21,5],"tags":[56,57],"class_list":["post-310","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-art","category-event","category-featured","category-general","tag-art","tag-event","wpcat-55-id","wpcat-54-id","wpcat-21-id","wpcat-5-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/reachandteach.com\/now\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/310","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/reachandteach.com\/now\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/reachandteach.com\/now\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reachandteach.com\/now\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reachandteach.com\/now\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=310"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/reachandteach.com\/now\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/310\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":317,"href":"https:\/\/reachandteach.com\/now\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/310\/revisions\/317"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reachandteach.com\/now\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/311"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/reachandteach.com\/now\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=310"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reachandteach.com\/now\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=310"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reachandteach.com\/now\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=310"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
