Transforming Gesture Exhibit

Transforming Gesture

Paint and metal become form.
Transforming the gesture into evocative works of art, three artists express their reactions to motion, form and time in paintings, and jewelry explosive with color, passion and intellect.
Truthfully present in the moment, each artist explores her unique vision with a common thread.

The Artists:

Amy Reeves, " The passage of time has become a recurring theme in my jewelry."

Andrea Lawson, "In my Rite of Spring paintings, I explore movement and rhythm of gestural dance figures as they appear and disappear creating a metaphor for our relationship with a pulsating natural world."

Karen Kosoglad, " I'm interested in the gestural moments in everyday life and the balance between weight, rhythm, shape and color."

Transforming Gesture will be on view October 1 through November 1, 2010

Andrea donates oil painting, Artisans On Taylor Starts a new scholarship for Youth

"I am going to be starting a scholarship fund for youth in our community", says Anna Nasset of Artisans On Taylor in Port Townsend. Andrea recently exhibited paintings at Artisans On Taylor and has work in AOT's online gallery. I was happy to donate a painting to this new worthwhile cause. Thank you Anna for supporting the arts and supporting education in Port Townsend!

"Call or stop in to buy a raffle ticket, or you can feel free to donate as well by simply making a check to AOT with "Scholarship Fund" in the memo. My goal is to raise through gallery donations and client donations $5000 a year!", Anna Nasset

I donated this small oil painting called "Wings Feather" to the raffle.

Here is the link. He was such a creative and nice person. I wish that I had had a chance to talk to him more. I grew up with his daughters who also went to Oakwood school. Robert F. Boyle obituary.
