Catching up

It's been a busy time and my art has been on the back-burner for far too long.  And, this blog has been sitting stagnant for even longer.  During the holidays last year, I found a fun little passion....painting flowers.  Okay, right, isn't this what aging, retired artists do?  But, hey, it's fun and let's face it, flowers are pretty and they are also really good models.  Very compliant...

Poppies - Watercolor

So, stand by, there will be more to come.  And, don't forget to mark your calendar for the Culver City Art Group's Annual Holiday Exhibition.  It will be on November 9th and there will be plenty of beautiful art to see.  And, if you like what you see, you will have the opportunity to purchase from the artists directly!!

More postings soon.

Meet the Artist at Long Beach Oasis

Artist's Closing Reception

Saturday, March 31st

NOON until 3 p.m.

"Serenity in the City”

March 3 - 31, 2012

This show features a spectrum of work by the artist. There are beautiful landscapes in various medium. The watercolors and pastels she is known for that celebrate such natural wonders as Yosemite, as well as the hidden pockets of nature within the city will be on view in one of those very settings. Visitors may come and enjoy a walk before or after viewing the artwork on lovely trails that surround the oasis just off the freeway.

New works will surprise those who are less familiar with her conceptual works, an engaging prose in vision that explores the views of the city from the spiritual voyage of a city dweller. Two window pieces (actual windows removed from local houses ~ re-purposed) capture the city scapes and find us wondering where we might be in the world, enticing us to question the vision before us. What do we choose to see over what we might really be viewing?
