Paula Lonneman's Opening Reception

We celebrated Paula's latest collection of oil paintings on July1!  Her show was called "Some Like It Hot"..and it WAS that night!

For those of you that didn't know this, Paula had just completed painting her series when she fell and broke what we thought was just one arm.  Turns out it was both arms (in the same place at both elbows)!  By the night of her party, her doctor released her to remove one of the casts and the other one was in a sling.  It made shaking hands with collectors a bit hard to do, but her infectious smile made everyone feel glad they came.  Here are pictures from her big event!

Amelia Rose Smith at Spoleto!

You should head to Spoleto in Charleston's Marion Square and see the gorgeous pastels of our very own Amelia Rose Smith!  She is one talented artist and Charleston's lucky to have her!  Here's just one example of her work, to pique your interest!

Strawberries & cheeses

The weather was gorgeous...the crowds came out!  All wanted a peek at Helen Beacham's newest collection of watercolors in a series entitled "The Essence of Vapor".  The rest of the gallery artists were a hit as well.  The champagne flowed, and we couldn't have asked for a more perfect evening!  We're most grateful for everyone's terrific support!

Beacham Show is hung!

We've started  preparations for this Saturday's champagne reception for Helen K. Beacham's latest collection of watercolors (April 30, 5-8pm).  It's amazing how something as simple as listening to a classic story on tape can influence an artist's painting mood and style.  Helen Beacham listed to "The Good Earth" by Pearl S. Buck, and the results are magical.

Lowcountry landscapes feel Oriental in style...Charleston architecture floats in front of our eyes...flowers dance in the foggy atmosphere.  The show is entitled "The Essence of Vapor" and will hang through the month of May.
