4/28/09 Art Attack 2009

“Art is the only way to run away without leaving home.” Twyla Tharp

Today was a day spent on the road making art and brochure deleveries.

I drove first to Krasl Art Center www.krasl.org  to deliver a 12″ X 12″ square canvas titled, Great Lakes Treasures.” My contact there accepted the piece and placed it near my other 10″ X 24″ canvas picturing the St. Joseph lighthouse which all together with a wreath made a nice three piece wall collection.

Then I delivered brochures to The Box Factory for the Arts, and enjoyed the artwork as I toured.

Next I headed to Harbor Country www.harborcountry.com stopping at local tourist sights to leave brochures along the way. A lot of shops and restaurants are still closed prior to opening for the 2009 season but I covered what I could.

My final destination was delivery to Local Color Gallery in Lakeside. This is the third year I have sold through the Local Color Gallery and I seemed to have attracted the notice of an interior designer who has been making purchases of my canvases the past few years.

I took the signature piece, Gifts of the Dunes” (from the Gifts of the Dunes Series) to this gallery along with three pieces from the “Calligraphy & Paper” series and 12 note cards.

Local Color is busy gearing up for their season opener, “Art Attack” www.harborcountry.org/artattack that begins this coming Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I am VERY happy to have my artwork be a part of this well publicized spring art walk.
