JULY SHOW - SHADOWS & LIGHT

Shadows and Light is the theme for July, when the sun is high in the sky, we are reminded about the balance between light and darkness and the value of each. Just as during the dark months we light candles, during the brightest, we honor the shadows in however they speak to us while we are bathed in brilliant light.

This is our Artist’s Feedback show, those artists who want to have their work professionally evaluated can choose to do so by our excellent featured artist and highly reputable teacher, Ken McGowan. The reception is July 5^th from 1-4pm with music and refreshments, please join us.

Ken did a truly amazing job of providing feedback to the artists who chose to be a part of it. After taking photos of all the paintings on Thursday before the show, he mulled them over and spent over 4 hours delving deep into the heart of the artist through their works. All the artists came away inspired and amazed. What a fabulous job he did! Below Sandi Dalton having her work discussed. And Elaine and Dale Coleman with Ken.
