Award for my Watercolor!

Hello to all

The Marblehead Arts Association is located in a beautiful old mansion in the center of town - 8 Hooper Street.

Right now there's a members' show throughout the mansion which is made up of many different galleries - each in a different space in the mansion.

I received a judges award for my original watercolor Lace Cap Hydrangea. There were only three judges awards given out!  The show will be on exhibit until July 14.

                             
                 
Marblehead, especially in the summer, is a beautiful town to visit. Check out the show - a lot of wonderful pieces on exhibit. And walk around the cobbled streets of the town. Look at the architecture - the old, wonderful houses. Have lunch! Have fun!

By the way, I have made signed, archival, limited edition giclee prints of many of my original watercolors, including Lace Cape Hydrangea. If you're interested in any particular painting or giclee, just go to the contact page and write me.

Hope you're enjoying the sun, your gardens, and this wonderful season.

My Reception at UFORGE Gallery

Hi,


I wanted to thank everyone who came to my reception at UFORGE Gallery on Friday evening the 14th June. It was a fun event and fun to see everyone.

My show will be up at the "Revolver" walls in the back of the gallery until July 14 - so if you didn't catch it at the reception, take a ride to JP, 767 Centre Street, in the center of town.

Check out their website - there's a blog on it about me and my show called "Nature's Portraits". Here's a sample painting...

called Picasso Calla Lilies, painted on handmade paper.
Actually all of my watercolors in the show are painted on handmade paper.

Since you're already on my site, take a look at my Artist Statement - my feelings about Nature and why I paint flowers!!

Have a flower - filled summer of beauty and color.

Best, Anita
