Gaby Grossman.... yes to color
The sun is out... and we're cleaning up for the spring open studios. READY for flowers!
The gardens are being "scrubbed". We can see the earth again! The pots are being emptied. Soon we will have lush color inside and out. Soon, too, we will be on the coral benches painting and making art. Stop in anytime. Our hours are posted on the website.... see you soon.

Artist Explores the World.... Natasha Stoppel knows no bounds
This is a sweet little piece by Natasha.... wood burning with watercolor. Nostalgic, romantic, vintage lovely, charming, and just down right cute. She will have a collection of these plus her new jewelry at the spring open studios!
Galaxy Girl.... Artful Harper Studios. One and the same?
Laura Harper brings a multitude of creative energy to the studio this May 11+12 for the spring open studios event..... maybe you have seen her at a festival? Come by and check her work out... she will be here in the studio on FRIDAY, MAY 11 for autographs :-) (Saturday she will be represented by a friend).
Anne Kenny Tea Squares....
We LOVE the unusual look of Anne Kenny's "Industrial Quilts".... the texture, the materials,.... the surprise. She has four of these "Tea Squares" on exhibit for the upcoming spring open studios. Where would you put yours?

Another "found" abstract.... by Deb Wheeler-Bean
Stitched edge alcohol ink process on reclaimed art paper. Deb is the master of finding beauty in the simple ... and in the discarded. Many hands went into this piece... far too many to count. You will have to ask her about the story.... May 11&12. Beautifully abstract.... with no intended direction. Completely "found".
This is a beauty....
We just love this "obscured" image from Becky Barsi. Experimenting with tissue over photography. This piece and more will be on exhibit this May 11&12 for Art Up Front Street's Spring Open Studios.

Save the date... our annual spring open studios are just around the corner
This one promises to be bigger and better than last year. We are getting in our "groove" here at the studios after a year of making and growing. It feels so right to be in the company of creative energy.... and we look forward to sharing it with you. Mark your calendar and tell a friend.

Thank you
Oh my goodness, what a turnout we had. Thank you to all who stopped by the studio. No doubt COFFEE is VERY important to many of you :-). Here is a pic of some of the crowd.

Here is to all of you who make our town so wonderful... CHEERS! and a heart felt THANK YOU.
