LowerTown Arts District, Second Saturday April 12, 2008
April 16, 2008 · 1 Comment
Well, I am sorry that I have not posted in over a week. I have been extremely busy getting all of the art prepared and hanging my new exhibit, “Two by Two” which opened this past Saturday April 12, 2008. It was Second Saturday in the LowerTown Arts District. Check out the photos of my opening at Nancy Calcutt Studio that are attached to this post. You can click on any image to view a larger picture.

There was so much going on that our little district was buzzing. I was lucky enough to have my husband, Charlie, gallery sit so that I could go and check out all of the other openings. My good friend and neighbor, Paulette Mentor, who owns Mentor House Gallery had a solo exhibit of her own work which was fabulous and the food and wine was fantastic, I might add–thank you Paulette; this lady sure knows how to throw a party!
My other friend and neighbor Carol Gabany, owner of the Egg & I Gallery had a new exhibit featuring the art of Stefanie Graves and David Lucht. There was also a new landscape exhibit at Leaping Trout Studio featuring artwork by Keyth Kahrs, Wil MacKay & Bill Renzulli.
A.I.R. Studio had a real happening-like the 1960’s all over again. A.I.R. had a number of art forms on display: a slide/animation presentation by Randy Simmons set to Beatles tune “Eleanor Rigby”, an art exhibit by Simmons and Teri Moore dealing with domestic violence and a two part performance piece with spoken word performance and an interactive component that occurred outside. I got involved with the interactive part–couldn’t help myself. Anyway- the LowerTown Arts District Second Saturday, April 12, 2008 was something special!

This painting pays homage to one of my favorite artists, Gustav Klimt. Klimt did some amazing paintings incorporating decorative patterns, textures and materials (like gold leaf) into his figurative subjects. His work is lush, sensual, and erotic at times and all about beauty, decadence and the human condition. Another for the Two by Two exhibit.

Musicians and their instruments
are favorite subjects of mine.
I especially like the upright bass
because of the visual drama that
is created by the instrument being
larger than a human being.
Often, when you see a bass player
performing, there seems to be a kind
of dance going on between the
instrument and the musician.
