Chicago, IL (March, 2012) -- 4-Star Restaurant Group, the company that’s brought Chicago some of its most popular neighborhood restaurants, including The Smoke Daddy, Frasca Pizzeria & Wine Bar, Dunlays, D.O.C. Wine Bar and soon-to-be, Crosby's Kitchen (June 2012), has some exciting events coming up over the next month, including:

Meet the Artist

You may have noticed the beautiful artwork featured on the walls of Dunlays on the Square, well now is your chance to meet the artist behind the work! Dunlay’s rotating art exhibit features a new local artist every several months, and for the first time ever they are offering the public a chance to “Meet the Artist”. On March 29th at 7p.m, Dunlays will host an event to meet the currently featured artist, Shawn Stucky. So stop in and meet the man behind the artwork, while enjoying $4 draft beers and brand new summer cocktails!

About Shawn Stucky:

Stucky was born red/green colorblind and moved from McPherson, Kansas to Chicago in 2002. It was by coincidence in 2006 that he created his first screen print. His process is based on simultaneously engaging his conscious and unconscious mind to express an intense emotion or complex thought based on personal experience. He utilizes the challenge of being red/green colorblind in his work by relying on value more than color. Stucky has shown in various spaces in Chicago, New York and other cites on a national and international scale.

Now taking a whisk start to work the eggs in to the flour. It will start to from a thick paste. If you think that it is getting to hard to work then...
