Reception Friday Evening at Ice House

Good Afternoon...and thank you to everyone who attended the reception at Ice House Gallery  this past Friday evening.  What a great time we had, great weather, good music and lots of interesting friends old and new.
 
A special thank you to Charles Gregory and Yolanda Poston for inviting me to exhibit at this beautiful  and historic working studio and gallery in downtown Georgtown.   Both Yolanda and Charles are gracious (besides being wonderful artists themselves) .  The reception was great , good food and  music provided by "Moses Alley"  ...a very talented group of musicians who added just  the right touch to the evening.
 
For those who were unable to attend the reception, the Ice House is open to the public on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday so if you get a chance we would love for you to stop in and look around

Off to start new projects....... Floral Fusion at Scott County Arts Consortium , exhibit begins in May and "Scenes  of Darley, pet cetra", Headley-Whitney Museum exhibit, starting June 28th with a silent auction.  This a  fundraiser for the Woodford Humane Society.....you know I love the animals!  So check out my website for details on these upcoming events as well as the Fairs that I will be doing later this summer and fall.

Time To Take A Breath!

I delivered the  art work for my upcoming show to Ice House Gallery this morning...... I left Yolanda and Charles working their creative  magic of hanging art....and I am taking a well need breather for the next day or so.  Time to recharge. 

These last few weeks have been busy with finishing a commission, rearranging  my art at Gallery 210 in Berea, entering juried shows/exhibitions and my regular job.......plus trying to create some new art.  The anticipation and excitement that goes along with a show is fun, but at the end I was thinking ...., "I must have been out of my mind to think having a one-woman show  was a great idea".

  Thanks to my  supportive husband for the extra encouragement and wonderful meals he prepared......David  is really a  "creative" as well as a good cook!

 And for all the artists out there.....you know the doubts that creep in when you are showing your work.  You love what you do,  but it's  like "wearing your heart on the outside",  you are vulnerable, you want to touch others with what you have painted......it doesn't have to be the same feelings....it just needs to connect!   Not well said, but I think many artists feel a very similar feeling. 

My last post included the invitation to the reception, the date, time and location is included.

Thank everyone in advance who will be attending..... I will be honored by your attendance.
