August is looming ahead

Ahhh.   August.   Hot and dry.  Time to stay in the shade and drink lemonade, watching the children playing in the lake.       Time for catching fireflies.     Time to spend cool evenings outside.     

August in the gallery will be a cool place to hang out.   It stays nice and cool inside and there will be a new exhibit of art shown.      Don't forget First Friday on  August 2nd from 6-8:30.     

It's now time to remove the membership art show pieces and bring in new art.   What did you think of the show?      I hope you found it as inspiring as I did.     I love to browse and admire the art first, and then hone in on favorites and look at every little detail to see what makes each piece work.    The techniques and materials used always intrigue me.

The theme for the month of August is "New Directions".     Seems a fitting theme as there are so many pathways in life and new directions to explore - or shy away from.    Is your art taking you in a new direction?     Share what you are doing by showing it at the gallery.     This Saturday , July 27th from 12-5 is the date for picking up your art and dropping off new art for this month.       You'll probably run into old friends and meet some new ones while you are there.    And you can take a last look at the art that is being removed.       

Members received  a notice that the August  newsletter is online now.  I haven't had a chance to read it yet, but always look forward to reading the latest.     Click on the link and read the  news.    You don't want to miss anything important - or fun.
