New Hope Arts Member Exhibit

New Hope Arts Opening Reception. Photo by Beatrice Bork.

August 22: Opening reception at New Hope Arts in PA, and it seemed fun was had by all. I think there were about 100 different paintings, sculptures, digital and photographic works of all kinds—something for everyone. I had a nice time talking to fellow artists and collectors alike, and had the nice surprise of winning the award for "Works on Paper" for my painting "Surveyor".  The juror for the exhibit was Rodger LaPelle of Rodger LaPelle Gallery in Philadelphia's Old City.

Now my focus is back on my "Watermarks" a duo exhibit across the river  in Lambertville, NJ opening September 10... which will showcase quite a few new works. Please click here for details.

Art Melange in August

I'm looking forward to my upcoming two weekend long group exhibit, "Art Melange", which was conceived and created by five artists from Bucks and Hunterdon Counties.

Art Melange focuses on how the elements of abstraction and reality in the natural world merge as conceived by five nationally collected artists who live and work in the Bucks and Hunterdon County area. Artists Beatrice Bork, Paul Grecian and Materese Roche all work in highly realistic styles, yet abstract elements play a vital role in their interpretations; taking their work beyond mere physical representation into a realm that engages the viewer on more intimate and compelling levels. Florence Moonan is a purely abstract artist and provides a dynamic counterpoint. Guenter Bork works in metal jewelry design and his work is influenced by the abstract elements of tribal cultures.

Phillips' Mill

I had recently entered the Phillips' Mill 81st Art Exhibit in New Hope PA, which is a very competitive local exhibit. It has been a few years since I have entered this show. I was happy to hear that my work was selected to be included in this years show.

The jurors have a huge task of selecting work from a large number of entries, in 3 categories. I chose to enter in the framed catagory, in which each artist is allowed to enter 1 piece. The total number of framed pieces entered this year was 317, the accepted numbered 97.

The exhibit starts off with an opening reception on Friday Sept. 24, 5:00 - 7:30 pm, with the exhibit continuing through Oct. 30th. Please visit www.phillipsmill.org for ticket info. and more details.

The artists were also asked to participate in a "meet the artists" series, a nice way to meet and talk in an informal setting. I'm scheduled for Oct. 7, 1:00–3:00 pm.
