About Last Weekend: Fort Worth artist flaunts work at bar after leap of faith

A bar on Magnolia Avenue may not be your very first guess for where an art show would happen, but Art Tooth, a Fort Worth not-for-profit started in 2016, wants to make art accessible to people in typical areas.

Art Tooth Executive Director Shasta Haubrich wishes to make sure that showcasing artists isn't limited to museums or galleries. Rather, Art Tooth works to represent artists who would otherwise not have the chance to show their work in public.

" We absolutely focus on attempting to ensure it's not simply white artists, that it's a diverse artist representation from every level of education too," said Haubrich. "There are a great deal of self-taught artists that aren't represented in Fort Worth that are worthy of representation."

Art Tooth just recently held the opening showcase of artist Tatyana Alanis at The Usual. Alanis is an artist who has quickly been growing in the last three years given that she decided to turn to art full time in 2021 throughout the COVID-19 pandemic.

For Alanis, having her art showed at a bar that she often visits feels incredible. Alanis did not initially think she might be a full-time artist due to her parents' fear of her not making adequate cash.

" I grew up as an only kid, so making art was the thing to pass the time. In my family going to college and doing art, that was out of the concern.

As she got older, Alanis yearned for becoming an artist regardless of working in financing.

" I took a huge leap of faith clearly, but it worked out doing little commissions simply to get by. "I feel like I'm still working my hardest to get to where I want to be, so I do not really feel like I made it or anything like that, however I believe I'm just working hard and attempting to live in the moment.".

Tatyana Alanis' art will be displayed at The Usual, 1408 W. Magnolia Ave., for the next 2 months and is readily available for purchase on her website French 75 Studios, where she features Fort Worth landmarks such as Cherry Coffee.
