Local art exhibit

This was the first time I've ever had to wait in line at the Hyde! The people ahead of us had come from Troy to see the Georgia O'Keeffe exhibit.

I am not sure of too many things right now with this one. I am not sure which way it will go or if I like it so far. I want it to have a lot of color but the main colors be the ones shown now. I am thinking about glazing other colors on top.. but I'll have to be carful so it doesn't look muddy. I also want to in some spots paint lace flowers, maybe in a hot pink. I am sure at the end I will put sparkle and 2 part epoxy on top because I love doing that. So far I like how it has stayed light in some areas, I have a tendency to over work things and then it all ends up dark. So my goal is to not do that.

Who knew of such things?!..

This was the second year for open studios of Washington County. I only went to see two artists, Virginia McNeice and Will Moses. Next year when I go I will take the whole day off and try to see them all.

I love this idea of being able to see successful artists and where they work. It was also really cool to see how they set up their studio space. The two I went to see had a separate building on their own property that was converted into a studio/ gallery space, both having two floors. Both artists also had works for sale in their gallery space, but they also had smaller inexpensive works for sale along side larger pieces which I liked. Also it was interesting that there are 12 artists on the tour and 6 of them live and work in Greenwich!

Will Moses
This was in a package of greeting cards and I asked him to sign this one (so that I can frame it)!

2013 Larac Members Show

This is the piece I put in the Larac Member Show this year. I have had it on this site before, so it is not new. I usually try and do something new for the show so that my current skill level is always being shown. I do like this painting though and it's never been shown before.

The show ran from May 24, 2013-June 24, 2013

Larac is always showing work at it's gallery space near the Glens Falls Library, take a look at the site and go check it out!
