ART OF MIGRATION AND NATURE GONE TO NEW HOMES!

These are from the ribbon of life idea. The PHONE FOG painting is about being disconnected by being buried in a digital world. Sort of. Then MIGRANTS who are essential to this country and the world. Another painting, ANGEL AND THE MONARCH, of many layers of glazes to build an ethereal experience of the gifts of life.

EXHIBIT OF CONNECTIONS AND MIGRANTS

Several of the artworks have sold. The gallery has had a lot of traffic. I have returned home. The exhibit continues for another week. Susan will be in the gallery today and next Saturday November 25, there will be a Closing reception. Enjoy the show!

RIBBON OF LIFE - THE SHOW!

Across the Verrazano Bridge to Manhattan island, delivering art to Ceres Gallery. Installation and fix the lights. Post the labels and sweep the floor. Fun is on its way!

MIGRANTS AND WALLS

Walls are barriers that keep you safe or can imprison you. Walls stop but they also leak. Walls attract attention, too. They say "Look, Look! Here is something worth protecting." Walls fall, too. They always do. This painting captures some irony and beauty and has some little jokes. One butterfly is not like the others. Fun and mystery, both.

NYRB! and RIBBON OF LIFE - IMMIGRANTS ALL

I got my copy of the 60th anniversary issue of the NEW YORK REVIEW OF BOOKS! The ad for my Ceres exhibit is on page 77 and it looks Grand! Susan Grabel is in the other gallery at Ceres at the same time as I am in gallery number 2. The ad for her exhibit is on page 75. It is so wonderful to see the word getting out!!!
