Gallery Updates

With some new arrivals coming in last week, we thought you'd like to see some of the new additions recently added to the gift gallery…

We received ceramics from Lollipop Pottery, located out of Ohio.  The pieces range from mugs, shot glasses, plates, bowls, and tumblers.  Each porcelain piece is thrown by Tyson Geib and later decorated by his wife Jessica with decals inspired by her original pen and ink drawings.

The four 'themes' we have here at the gallery are monsters, skunks, birds, and skulls - so you can pick from whatever category suits you best!

 

Short Mugs, $24 each

Dish, $18 each

 Tall Mugs, $30 each

Shotglasses, $14 each

The other shipment of goodies we received came from Uncle Goose, located in Michigan.  This unique little company specializes in wooden blocks with a modern twist.  Uncle Goose strives to combine old-fashioned techniques with contemporary aesthetics to make simple, creative toys for a increasingly technological age.

Stack and Scare Set #1, $48

The very last update we have today is a preview of our invite for the next exhibition here at the gallery. 'Fantastic Narrative' opens Saturday, April 12 and will feature pieces from Bill Carman, Gary McCauley, Kyla Zoe Rafert, and Joseph Cowman.  The idea behind this group show lies in the personal sense of fantasy each of these four artists explores in his or her work.  

You can find information about this show and each of these artists on our website and our online inventory.  You can also find the press release for this show on our Scribd account.  Happy reading!

Shannon Richardson's show opens tonight!

As promised, we've posted some preview photos of Shannon Richardson's show opening tonight!

The event takes place here at the gallery from 7 - 9 p.m.  Richardson will also be attending, so be sure to stop by and meet her!

Shannon Richardson, Ray Maseman, and Monsters

We thought we'd post some updates happening at the gallery as of late…

This week saw two arrivals of some toys to our Gift Gallery.  We got the little monsters from Mr. Sog's Creatures.  You can find them on our website here.

We also received some pieces from Snooter-Doots, which are on our website here.  These little guys, of which we have the animal friends and puppets, are all made from felted wool.

We also have an opening this week for Shannon Richardson.  Shannon will also be traveling from California to attend the event and chat about her work.  The event takes place here at the gallery from 7-9 p.m. on Saturday, March 8.  You can find all of her work and more information about her on our website.

Ray Maseman will be the featured printmaker for the show as well.  You can find his prints and more information on our website here.

Tomorrow we'll post a few peeks at Shannon's show in the gallery.  See you at the opening!

Last Day for Barnes and Grew!

Don't forget today is the last day to see Heidi Preuss Grew's and Michael Barnes' show - so stop on by the gallery!  We're open from 10 am - 5 pm today.

Pick of the Week

We've decided to start a new little series for the blog titled 'Pick of the Week.'  Each week we'll feature a piece from the gallery that we think is a strong representation of our current shows.   

        

                             

For the first installment we have Erin Ruiz's piece titled 'With Baggage like that…'  This work is currently in one of our shows titled Love Story, that features both Ruix and painter Beth Bojarski.  You can find more about the show on our Scribd profile or our website.

Happy Friday!

Upcoming and Current Shows

We've recently gotten the full body of work for Shannon Richardson's upcoming show in March.  Here's a few peeks at some of the paintings set to display…

'We, Within the Fold' by Shannon Richardson

'Top of the Hill' by Shannon Richardson

Also, don't forget about two our current shows!  We have Erin Ruiz and Beth Bojarski's work in the front gallery.

And Heidi Preuss Grew and Michael Barnes's show will only be up for one more week (ending March 1st) - be sure to catch this great exhibition while you still can!

Happy Friday!  Remember we're open Saturday, 10 am - 5 pm.
