New Gallery NewsI

 I have been wanting to get to this post for a week but haven't had access to the pics until now.  

I attended an artist's  reception on Sunday, May 1st for a month long show entitled The First and The Last. 

 Last things first.  The Last is in reference to Margot of Margot’s Gallery in downtown Oxford.  This, sadly, is her last show as she has sold her gallery and is planning to spend more time on her artistic endeavors.  She will be missed, but I know that her time spent on art will be fruitful.  She is very talented and I admire her work.  Arturo & I purchased two to hang in our home and will most certainly add to our collection over time.

The First refers to the first show at the gallery for new owner, Rob.  He made a great first impression when he surprised Margot (and everyone else) with a cake  depicting a 3-D copy of one of her masks from the Sweet and Savory Bake Shop  located right next door. Well done.

The new gallery will be called Art Capsule.  This link will take you to Rob's blog where he is chronicling the emergence of his vision.  I am excited to be working with the gallery as it hosts my first individual art show, Shadowplay.   This is my big news and I  have been holed up in my studio creating some new pieces in time for the show.  I will post the details as well as a few peeks at new work along the way.

In the meantime, these pieces are currently on exhibit in the gallery along with numerous other works from talented local artists.  This exhibit runs through the month of May.
