Holiday Lights

The "Get Lost" show finished off on a high note, an ending to a great show. It started off last year when Joe Kazimierczyk and I paired-up for this feature, all the way through to our ending "Coffee and Conversation" event. Having a feature at Artists' Gallery is always a pleasure, meeting new people and seeing familiar faces caps off the experience of creating and then showing your labor of love.

And now, as those who know the Artists' Gallery (AG), things change by the month, and today kicked off the start of our new "Holiday Lights" exhibit that features all 18 artists. Our work is not only in the feature salon but throughout the gallery, surely a place you could lose yourself in art for awhile. The entire gallery offers a variety of styles for every taste. We also have greeting cards, artists books, calendars, prints as well as our original works of art.  The exhibit runs through February 5th, and all are welcome to our opening to meet the artists on Sat. Dec. 10, 3-6pm. Hope to see you there!

"Get Lost" last weekend! (No Bull)

It's almost over! I can't believe just how quickly this show seems to have gone. "Get Lost" was an idea Joe Kazimierczyk and I came up with a year ago. We both draw our inspiration from being outdoors. For Joe it's about our local beautiful landscapes, and for me it's about the animals I encounter while in nature. 

Our artwork made a great pairing, and this weekend offers the last look at our featured show at Artists' Gallery in Lambertville, NJ. The gallery is open Friday, Saturday and Sunday 11am – 6pm. All are welcome to our closing "Coffee and Conversation" reception on Sunday, Dec. 4th, 2 – 5pm, both Joe and I will be there and look forward to capping off our successful show.

"Get Lost" update

Wow, we’re already 10 days into the “Get Lost” exhibit, time is really flying. The opening was great, it seemed like all had a wonderful time, unfortunately I wasn’t able to able to speak to everyone. And since the opening a few of my pieces have found new homes, thank you for your support!

We will be having one more closing “Coffee and Conversation” event on Sun., Dec. 4th (2-5pm) if you weren’t able to make it to the opening, I hope you’ll get a chance to stop by and say hello!

I wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving!

Get lost in a moment, in nature, in discovery

 I’m excited to say that "Get Lost" opened yesterday, and it looks
beautiful (if I do say so myself)! If you enjoy the outdoors this show
is sure to please.

It is a featured duo exhibit including my animal watercolor paintings complemented nicely with landscape oil paintings by Joe Kazimierczyk.

Both of us do much of our work in nature. Kazimierczyk revels in the peaceful scenery of New Jersey’s farmsteads and back road vistas. While I enjoy the discovery of birds and other animals in a more detailed approach to my subjects in harmony in their natural surroundings.

Join us this evening from 5 to 8:00 pm, as we host a reception at Artists’ Gallery, 18 Bridge Street in Lambertville, NJ.

Art Exhibit: November 11 to December 4, 2011
