Art Works

Friday was the Opening Reception at Art Works for the Chesapeake Bay Artists Association show in the Jane Sandler Gallery.

We took a bus trip, I have been calling it a field trip, up to Richmond. We had a great day. We had a tour of VCU's art department. (Some of us were dreaming of being 4o years younger and going to school there.) We also traveled through the beautiful hills and went to the University of Richmond and saw a Ansel Adams exhibit as well as visiting many galleries. But the highlight of the day was visiting the Glass Spot and watching Chris Skibbe do a very exciting glass blowing demonstration.

The evening came and we went to the Opening Reception. It was exciting seeing the show and visiting the other galleries. We met interesting people and enjoyed the wine!!!

I hope some of you will be able to visit Art Works before October 18th. It is open Tuesdays through Sundays from 12pm to 6pm.

Jane Sandler Gallery

Chesapeake Bay Artist's Association is having a show at Art Works in Richmond. There are approximately 100 paintings on display for your viewing pleasure.

These are the three paintings of mine that will be on display in the Jane Sandler Gallery, 320 Hull St. Richmond, VA. The Opening Reception is tomorrow, Friday September 25th from 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm. The paintings will be there until October 18th Tuesday through Sunday from 12:00 noon to 6:00 pm. The phone number is 804 291-1400.

I hope some of you are in the neighborhood and will be able to stop by. I will be there for the Opening and would love to see you there. It ought to be a great show.

Looking at my paintings I see that I am in a green phase. I have been enjoying all the colors of greens that I can mix. Green is such a calm, peaceful, restful color; it is found everywhere in nature (well most everywhere). It symbolizes life and growth. It can be warm or cool. I will move on to focusing on other colors as time goes by, but for now everything is green.
