SANTA BARBARAHospice of Santa Barbara invites the community to view the work of Santa Barbara resident and artist David Glenn (Judd) Crouch at an open house reception to be held Wednesday, April 4 from 5:30-7:30 p.m.

David’s artistic career spans 60 years, during which he enjoyed success as an active exhibiting studio artist, as well as a master scientific illustrator at UCSB. He was also an active member of the Santa Barbara Art Association. Much of his work was featured in professional publications and traveling exhibitions worldwide. The longtime artist took pride in his philosophy: “The image is behind the eyes, the line is already there.” David passed away late last year.

His artwork will be on display from April to June at the Leigh Block Gallery located inside Hospice of Santa Barbara, 2050 Alameda Padre Serra, Suite #100, Santa Barbara.
Twenty-five percent of the total sales of art will benefit Hospice of Santa Barbara, which has a 44 year-long legacy of providing compassionate care and programs to those suffering from life-threatening or terminal illness, as well as the bereaved.

“It is our privilege to honor the legacy of this great artist” said David Selberg, Hospice of Santa Barbara CEO. “I’m certain that the community members who come to see his work will be just as awed by David’s talent as we are.”
