Monica Petrus featured in Art & Wine series

You’ve seen her on “House Hunters International.” Now meet Monica Petrus and learn something the HGTV program didn’t really tell you: she’s a fantastic artist.

Wine & Art Wednesday at El Bull Pen features the California native this week. Not only does she create fabulous murals, but her smaller works — often of sea turtles, flamingos and other animals — are captivating.

Wine flights and dinner specials are on the menu.
