 Image from article Local artist Maller exhibits at Main Street Cafe
Will Maller’s exhibition runs through March 31.

Main Street Cafe & Books has scheduled “Maller on Main Street,” an exhibition of the work of Los Altos artist Will Maller, Saturday through March 31. An artist’s reception is set 5:30-7:30 p.m. March 5 at the cafe, 134 Main St., Los Altos.

Primarily a representational landscape artist, recently focusing on plein air, Maller has won a variety of awards for his oils, watercolors and figure drawings. “Maller on Main Street” is his first local one-man show and will include many of his newer pieces, including “Gold Country Sundown,” which won the First Place People’s Choice Award at the Napa Museum’s juried plein-air exhibition last spring.

Maller is past president of the Los Altos Art Club, and two of his works have been published in “Paint the Town,” a book depicting artists’ scenes of Los Altos and Los Altos Hills.

Maller majored in art at the University of Minnesota and Mankato State, where he studied with Alan Houser and Peter Busa. He has studied recently with watercolorist George James and oil painters Albert Handell and Richard Schmidt.

In Our Opinion

Editorial

For the first time in five years, a public elementary school, Gardner Bullis, opened its doors last week in Los Altos Hills. For some, it was, metaphorically speaking, the last stitch removed from the old wound following the closure of the original Bullis-Purissima School in 2003.

For others, including the diehards who formed the successful Bullis Charter School, the sting of the Bullis closure lingers. But our sense is that for most Hills residents not part of the Loyola School coverage area, the opening of Gardner Bullis means the resurrection of a long-sought-after neighborhood school and the community benefits that come with it.
