SulemaThe Brownwood Art Association has named Sulema Orr as their artist of the year for 2014 and will hold a reception for her Friday night to celebrate her accomplishments.

The reception will be held Friday, April 25th from 7-9 PM at the Art Center (215 Fisk Street) in Brownwood.  Orr’s artwork will be on display and will be open to the public.

In 2010, Orr opened her photography studio, Sulema Orr Photography at 311 N. Center in Brownwood.  Portraits are her main interest but she enjoys a wide variety of subject matter and carries her camera with her 24/7, as well as a sketchbook.

She has been awarded Honorable Mention in the Stars of Texas Juried Exhibition and first place in the first Stars of Texas Shoot Out in 2013.

The many art classes and events offered throughout the year by the association have been an important source of inspiration for Sulema.
