New Exhibit & Partnership

My new home

Selected art by moi

more works by moi

love those wood floors and tin ceiling!

As artists we all dream about it, work for it, angst over it -- and then it finally arrives:  representation.  I'm still pinching myself!

The Left Bank Gallery of Essex, CT is a wonderful light-filled space, situated in a beautiful village on the Connecticut River where working shipyards, boutiques and restaurants, cafes and bookshops line the narrow streets and tiny byways of this typical New England historic town, complete with a green and an old-fashioned bandstand.  Each month, the Gallery hosts a reception to highlight a particular artist, complete with music, good food and libations.  Summer is a busy time for Essex with the shipyards, yacht clubs and harbor as it is on the route of the Intercoastal Waterway that goes from Florida up to Maine and the Canadian coastal areas.

Well, I'm keeping fingers and toes crossed that some of these paintings will find good homes, either on dry land or afloat!
