Wed.       2 days left of November!    Weather has been unseasonably warm, dry and very pleasant.  We've survived (and enjoyed as well as suffered through)  Thanksgiving.    3 of our 4 children came to dinner, with spouses, partners and 7 grandchildren, thus the slowness of gallery business, gave me a needed rest.     We're all longing for snow on the mountains!
          We've just been back 6 weeks from  Europe - it's been intense,    but the drawings I was able to do there,   keep the days abroad alive for me.   Progress was made on my show for late Spring '18:    I met with Dr. Philipp Aumann in Usedom and saw the rooms the show will occupy.   And finally the painting   "Progress in Eden"   has finally been located in storage at  the hotel resort of my German  nobleman where it has been since my show there.   So it is now being sent to the museum in Peenemuende;  that is a relief to me, as it was t he first painting in the series being shown--no formal title yet, but "Preoccupied with Missiles"  will do for the moment. 

Carol Hoy and Laila Ionescu's shows will continue through January 2018.  (see 2 new images of Hoy's)   Louise Baum's very subtle Monoprints have graced the entry wall and been enjoyed by all visiters to the Gallery.     Thank you for the pleasure  and inspiration, Louise!

July 15th  2017!        We are galloping through the summer!   Because of the on going process (2 1/2 years now)   of down sizing and moving out of our family home and my large beautiful studio as well as still taking care of the landscape/garden (thank God the rains have begun! so I get a break),  the summer is almost half gone before I  planned openings for the rest.    10 days ago Laila Ionesco brought in 5 dramatic new pieces running the gammut from humorously political to deeply, emotionally moving, as well as aescethically exciting, for her Show Opening August 19th.
         At the end of the same week I drove to ABQ (Corrales) to Carol Hoy's  Studio, bringing back 8 wonderful pieces that will serve as an introduction to her show in  September.   In the meantime the Gallery will celebrate all the gallery artists with    a  Gallery garden Party on July 29th from 3:30 to 6:00.   [More images for Ionesco later and a new Post for Hoy.]
