SURFACE, the current exhibition in The Duke Gallery at the Community Arts Center in Wallingford, PA includes the work of 72 artists, creating in all media. Lorraine Riesenbach, founder and retired Director of Artists’ House Gallery in Philadelphia, was the juror for this show. I’m happy to report that both of my natural mosaics, “Ascent” and “Blossoms”, are part of this show.
The Duke Gallery was teeming with artists, art patrons and appreciators during Sunday’s afternoon reception, in spite of the pending wintry conditions. I met many new artists and enjoyed learning about their work which came in many shapes and sizes: encaustic panels, mixed-media collage, ceramic, tooled clay and plaster tiles, bamboo mosaic, trompe l’oeil paintings and drawings, wood collage, assemblage art, watercolor and oil paintings, abstract / representational, in other words, something for everyone to appreciate.
This was my first time exhibiting in this beautiful gallery – made all the more terrific when I discovered my 3rd Prize Award for “Blossoms”! Thankyou, Lorraine. Thanks also to everyone involved with handling the details of this exhibition – your efforts are greatly appreciated.
