I was invited to display some of my artwork at the Alamosa SLV Medical Center in December. When the center expanded several years ago they had the foresight to build into the design a very elegant art space. It is a sun-drenched place situated in front of a wall of windows. They call it the Artrium.
I think my paintings are at their best when viewed under natural light since they are all painted in natural light, whether outdoors or in my amply sunny studio.
After the paintings were up we decided to have an opening to take advantage of the opportunity- sort of a spontaneous response.
I also try to help out causes dear to my heart when I can. So we decided to offer a 30% contribution to our local La Puente Homeless Center for any sales that ensue.
So here is the pitch:
Artists Reception 4 to 7 p.m. February 11, 2011 at the Alamosa SLV Regional Medical Center, 2nd Floor Artrium.
Open to the public and refreshments will be served.
The show is up now and until March 20 so if you can't make the reception please come by and check it out when you can.
Painting shown "Lemon Cliffs" 18x24 oil on linen
I am with you on the "aimless and ecstatic" bit. Sounds good- as long as there is food involved.
ReplyDeleteSatiety seems to be required for me to enjoy- whatever it is! It's hard to appreciate a great view when your stomach is growling.
