Well--it's pretty official--ok--it's officially announced.
Kevin Macpherson, master oil impressionist and highly sought after artist, is coming to Middletown to exhibit his "Reflection on a Pond" series. He'll be lecturing and demoing on the weekend of his visit. Kevin's exhibit is scheduled for May of 2009.
I'm the chair of the exhibit and now the work begins--securing funding and all that good stuff!!
Kevin is a wonderful (understatement!) artist and if you'd like to his work you need to stop by his website and check it out. Kevin has many, many, many accomplishments and it is a real pleasure to work with Kevin and his wife Wanda. Kevin has many publications, has won numerous awards including the Salon International--Best of Show. We--ok---I'm absolutely estatic that this is happening and that we will be able to watch this Master at work and enjoy his creativity in person. Quite a feat for this little Arts Center and for our little group!
We have some dates to confirm and a few more details to work out, but things are moving along. If you like to become a sponsor of the event, PLEASE don't hesitate to contact me. Needless to say this will be an expensive little endeavor! If you'd like to attend the lecture or demo, send me an email me and we'll get your name on the list. We've been drowning in calls already and this is almost a year and half away!!
It's been a surprising day....we'll see how the rest of it turns out. I have no idea how far away this news has traveled. I've been surprised by the number of contacts and locations already!!
In a few days, I'll be putting up the finished Beatles painting I did. How you'll enjoy that one. And don't forget the Essex Studios will be participating in the Fine Arts Fund Weekend Sampler. We'll be doing the art walk on Feb 8 and Feb 9th. I'll be painting, so stop on down and watch me work!
That's the update for now--thanks for stopping by!
