A New Article

I know...I've been missing from posting recently...but I had been very busy trying go prepare for a trip of several days in Cape Cod to try to find a new gallery to make my art a part of.
I'm a bit determined to get it out there and be seen!!

Well....in my next post I'll tell you how the Cape trip went...but for now...I'll share the article I found in another of our local papers when I returned home late Saturday!
The article was in our Standard Times (South Coast Today). It had originally been timed to come out around the time of the previous article a couple of weeks ago. Delays happened, as they do, and it finally arrived on May 1st. ....very nice way to start the month!

In this article as with the last, there are a few minor mistakes and some wrong timelines and such...but certainly, for the most part....a very well written article! This reporter writes with a bit more color and whimsy, painting a picture for the reader.

In the hard copy, as opposed to the online link above, the page where the article starts has a nice header and my photo. What took my breath away though was the next page that the article continued on! The photos of my work were just beautiful....large and colorful and I loved the way she put the insert pic of the "before" of the goldfish in with the finished "after" shot! Nicely done.

Sooo...although I added the above link, and yes, you can click on the pics in the article for more, I just had to take a photo of the actual paper to give you a feel for what I saw upon my coming home! Thanks Lauren!!

Collyer's Gallery

I just paid a visit to Collyer's, the gallery in Mattapoisett that is carrying my art right now. I thought it would be fun to bring her a copy of the newspaper article that just came out today about my work. OK....not the best article written...but it was nice to get some press. Certainly there are things that I would have been sure to put into it...such as a little better description about how the art is actually created...a mention of the gallery....as well as my website!!
Oh well....as I said....it was at least nice to get some press...lol

While I was at the gallery I decided it would be a good chance to take a shot or two of the current display of my work. It was great to see it hanging.
Had a nice chat with the gallery owner who was telling me how much attention the pieces are getting. Seems that a lot of people are taking notice. She even had one woman questioning her about having me do a larger commission piece. This was great to hear considering that the busy season around here hasn't even begun!!
