Gallery Face Lift for the Winter!

Some changes at Gallery 9. Very exciting!

A new gallery artist, and a new display. Kim and I dragged up this black display from the basement and cleaned it up and voila! Perfect for small items. These tiny spun cotton figurines are by Vintage by Crystal, our newest Gallery artist. You can see some of my jewelry just beyond.


Kim is painting the window "Wall". You can barely see her working, I tried to get a Kerry Hawkins type photo, but boy, is that harder than it seems.

Here is Julie reaching the areas of the "Wall" that Kim couldn't reach. I can't wait to see what will eventually be on this vibrant blue wall.

What fun! I can't wait to go in tomorrow to see the whole window finished. It's always something fabulous!!!

Art classes for adults

Monday mornings and on both Tuesday and Wednesday nights, Custom Art Framing and Gallery 9 offer art classes.These are some photos from this past Tuesday's class.
Alice has been working in pastel--both oil and chalk---and refining her technique.

Here Alice and Hana work diligently on their pieces. The time flies by during class. Before it seems we've been at it for five minutes, I'm announcing that class only has 15 minutes to go!


And look at this photo!
Do you think my student drew a chair?
It's not really as it seems.

When I took out my camera, she jokingly put her pencil in her instruction book so it would seem that the drawing was hers. What a riot! We were just having some fun. I think the photo is pretty convincing, don't you?


What fun we had!
