exhibit photos



There they are, hung.  Not quite finished, we have to straighten a few up with some blue tack and all - the wonders of blue tack.  Still, pretty darned happy with it overall.  I am also, far and away, the most modern painter there, despite the fact that some of them are much younger than me.  Weirdness.

Have a lovely Sunday, we're having a crazy busy one.

Yes, lovely indeed.

You're inspiring me to perhaps dust off my own paints in the new year.

There is something about seeing your own work on a wall other than your own home. It's a thrill and a confirmation and realization that art does exist outside one's own studio. Congratulations, I'm very excited for you! What a trip. I agree that I would feel a bit strange too having the most "modern" pieces up with much younger other participants. Ah well, be true to yourself, as someone famous once said.

Lovely! I like all the white space inside the frames--sets off your color choices nicely. How did you ever narrow them down to the seven?

Congratulations! What a great feeling it must be to see your work publicly displayed!

It all looks amazing and I wish I were there to cheer you on. I'd love to hang out in a gallery and get to be a "friend of the artist". Very chic!

Trish! GOOOOO dust em off...go go go!

This is the first time I've seen any of my work on a wall other than my own and it is exciting indeed!

JG, there were supposed to be six...plus it also got put into categories and looked at from the perspective of how well it would carry and be visible, also what would fit in the frames we had......etc.

Beth, that sounds a lot more chic than it is! IT is good fun though. People in the village are commenting too, which is nice.
