Saturday workshop!

I'm offering a painting workshop at Gallery9 this Saturday!!

Here are the specs:

Workshop: Plein Air Painting Norwood
Date: Saturday, June 12th from 9am-3pm
Rain date: Saturday, June 19th from 9am-3pm

Instructor: Kim Morin Weineck
Gallery9 at custom art framing
45 Central Street, Norwood, MA 02062

$90 includes handouts, painting demo, surprise supplies,
and individual instruction in a group setting

Painting outdoors or ‘en plein air’ is an exciting activity for
professional and novice painters. Working on location has numerous
advantages and creates some site-specific problems. In this workshop
artists will paint in downtown Norwood and leave the workshop with a
completed painting (or maybe even more than one!)

We’ll start the day early at Gallery9 with a painting demonstration.
During the demo, we’ll discuss locations to consider and offer
specific outdoor techniques. Artists are then welcome to spend the
rest of the day painting---with a lunch break (you provide
lunch)---until we stop for critique in the afternoon. During the
free-paint, instruction will be offered to each individual in an
ongoing, rotating basis.

Artists of all mediums are most welcome to participate. Completed
paintings may be on display at the gallery.
Surprise Supplies include some tools designed to make your ‘plein
air’ painting experience go smoothly and will help you plan your
painting. Also included is a coupon for framing at Custom Art Framing.

Instructor Kim Morin Weineck is Gallery Director at Gallery9 at
Custom Art Framing and is an artist and teacher. She has offered
numerous workshops in everything from ‘finding your artist’s voice’ to
‘abstract expressionism’ during her nearly ten years in art
instruction. Kim holds a degree in Fine Art from MassArt with special
study at the Pont Aven School of Contemporary Art, a RISD affiliated
program. For more on Kim’s work, please see her blog at

Fork and Spoon

I recently brought some new paintings to Gallery9. Here are the large-scale fork and spoon I did right before Thanksgiving. Do you think the big holiday meal was on my mind?


And here's a photo of the gallery as we were preparing for the Holiday Sale we had last week.
Doesn't it look great? More photos to come!

More press for Gallery Nine!

Yankee Magazine showcased one of our artist's works in one of our gorgeous frames.

How exciting!

Thank you to local styling expert, Kelly McGuill.

We are delighted that you came in and liked Kim's work.

Foxboro Art Association Members' Show

A lot of the members from Foxboro Art Association come to us to frame their pieces and we love that they do. This month they are having their annual members' show and we went to check it out and see how it looked.
What can we say but that it was fabulous. What a strong show of work! And what a lot of entries! It's impressive to have such an active artist community in the area. We were delighted to have gone to check it out.
We have to add that we think the ribbons make some of our frames look even better, won't you agree?Congratulations to all who entered. It was a wonderful show.
