Rooms

The city is the gallery.

Richard Nuñez paints where people gather — wine, steak, and a full room. The canvas goes up in public, and Dallas gets to watch it finish.

Wine Cat Bistro

2010–2013

Wine Cat Bistro

Highland Village

A strip-mall wine bar that doubled as the studio. D Magazine found him there finishing celebrity canvases in three to six hours, Thursday tastings running while the paint was still wet. Almost every picture on the wall was his.

Studio Nuñez

2013–2018

Studio Nuñez

Valley View Center

Opened mid-March 2013 inside Dallas’s Valley View mall. He hung twenty-four blank canvases and promised one a week. VIP after hours, a green room, speakeasy nights. The studio and Valley View Center closed in 2018.

III Forks

Live nights

III Forks

Dallas

He occasionally paints live at III Forks, finishing original works in front of diners. Steak, wine, and a canvas still wet when the table turns.
