This show should be called "Deck the Halls" because the pieces are all small in price and size! Ideal xmas gifts, especially for those art lovers who say they have no more room. Many of the paintings are safe for small spaces like bathrooms, for example the acrylic on canvas of Pauline Conley, the metal and encaustic works of Sheedy, Falkner and Derby. These will also stand up in the kitchen thematically as well as being impervious to food spatters! eg. June Anderson's and Erika Olson's still life paintings.

OKWA GROUP SHOW AT MILLSTREET GALLERY/CAFE IS UP
Hanging the Millstreet show was an enjoyable experience, a gaggle of women 'milling and hanging' around somehow without direction arranging themselves into units that tackled individual walls and accomplished hanging a show with style! Another experience of women working harmoniously together. Here are pictures of the crew hanging on Monday October 4. Soon, pictures of all the works will be put up with prices/sizes/etc. for those unfortunate people who cannot make it out to Sydenham to view the work 'in the flesh'. Gallery/Cafe hours are from 11am to 3pm Tuesday to Saturday and Saturday 5pm dinner. The reception is scheduled for 07 November 3 to 6pm with dinner at 6pm.
Martine Bresson, Mary Peppard, Su Sheedy, Pauline Conley, June Anderson, Rebecca Cowan and Alana Kapell. |
