Fostering a new renaissance through creativity, authenticity, spirituality, and art
I have four paintings in the show, two for the fundraiser and two for me. I was in Boston during the opening of this show at the Ridgefield Guild of Artists. When I finally saw the show yesterday, one of my fundraiser paintings (the top one by clicking here) had already sold so I never … Read more
Last weekend, I went to two local art shows which I probably would have had art in if I hadn’t been away this fall. Last Friday night, my husband and I enjoyed the buffet reception at the SCAN art show, and then on Sunday, after a lovely lunch out just the two of us, we … Read more

These are the paintings I liked in Society of Creative Arts in Newtown’s 40th spring juried show. I didn’t enter anything but I probably should have,

You can see my above two paintings closer up by clicking here and by clicking here on this blog. As the first photo shows below, these paintings of mine are placed in the cameo spot where … Read more
We got up to this show in Kent, Connecticut at the Morrison Gallery (click here for their website) on the last day only to hear that it has been extended two weeks, if you still want to get to see it. 9666
Last night I went to the reception for the Easton Library Art Show. It was a nice soiree with interesting people and all too enjoyable frosted brownies and spinach dip. The two paintings I have in this show can be seen above or better in my blog archive by clicking here and here. Unlike the … Read more
I’ve been to the annual SCAN art show titled Color in January for years, but this is the first time it includes any of my paintings.
Here is some gallery art by others that I’ve enjoyed recently. Interestingly, by far the most expensive piece here is the triptych of ink dribbles (my least favorite). The work directly below that is made of eggshells… There was also an amazing price on the simple ripped sandpaper collage! Anyway, I hope you enjoy them … Read more
We enjoyed this show at the Whitney Museum on Madison and 75th Street in NYC. (Click here for their website) And you’ve got to love that lighted ceiling there, which is an art installation in itself! What I didn’t know before was that Georgia O’Keefe stepped out into fame with a first show of completely … Read more
My daughter and I enjoyed a great show today of Kandinsky’s work at the Guggenheim Museum. The museum is awesome in itself, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in a gradually sloping spiral with a skylight at the top. One can not only see the artwork up close but from all the way across the museum … Read more
I saw art by these two artists at a show at the Wilton Library in Connecticut, where they will be exhibited (and for sale) until December 29, 2009. Laura Wilk is an awesomely detailed representational watercolorist (click here for her website) and Marisa Taddei does exceptionally expressive non-representational monoprints (I couldn’t find a website for … Read more

Yesterday I went with my husband to a gallery show of Wolf Kahn’s pastel works on paper. During the long but pleasant drive to Kent in the soft rain we discussed what made an artist famous, what makes them recognized and valued. Wolf Kahn is one of the best known artists alive today. (Jeff Koons’ … Read more
Today I dropped off these two new paintings of mine for sale in the Ridgefield Guild of Artists’ “Holiday Home” show. For each painting of a 6×6 stenciled cup donated to the Guild as a fundraiser, an artist is able to submit one painting to be shown in the gallery for sale. See my abstracted … Read more
Block Island is a wonderful tear-shaped island 13 miles off the coast of Rhode Island. This was our first visit but we hope to be back! It is surprisingly varied both in people and scenery, with interesting architecture and good food, and thankfully is not as overbuilt as many such areas due to an active … Read more
