Let's Feature one of our 2025 Artists of the Year!

Myra Knapp's subtle arrest of the spirit, energy and beauty of her environment endow her landscapes with compelling power. This talent has been applied to works describing the West for the last three decades and is seen in painterly forms that capture vastness, magnitude, mystery and solitude.

Inspired by an active artistic family, Knapp studied at the university level; carefully selected American artists and teachers Scott Christensen, Charles Movalli, Ted Goerschner, Ron Rencher and Randall Sexton, whose impressionist paintings have achieved national fame, and worked with them to gain her en plein air expertise and to develop her own unique style. In addition, two years of study in Europe exposed her to the work of history's great artists as well as contemporary styles and concerns.

The Canyon Lake Art Guild awarded a significant scholarship to a high school senior from Canyon Lake who will be attending college this fall. This was the first time a student ever did a series of paintings on one subject. This student chose the life of Jesus. Congratulations to the scholarship winner and many thanks to Canyon Lake Art Guild for such a meaningful contribution to the community with a beautiful art show and scholarship! visitnbtx.com
