Altogether: Collage/Assemblage



















I slipped into the gallery and took these photos this afternoon.


The opening is on Saturday and it will be overflowing with people, live music, food and wine. I was pleased to hear there were over 350 entries and only 90 were accepted. I had two accepted (my

two are the 1st and the 6th photo)so I was very pleased. Florie's piece is the second one with the red pony. Wonderful assemblages...plenty of imagination and workmanship. CLICK TO ENLARGE.


Pablo went with me today and we

went out for another lunch. We had planned to visit our new Whole Foods but it won't open for five more days, we ate at a small delicious bakery/bistro...fun date for us.

    I agree with the judges. These two are wonderful choices. I especially like the one with what looks like blueprint plans worked into the design. It so much reminds me of "plans for the future". Good going!!

    These are terrific pieces of yours and they deserve to be in the show. Great job! Isn't that lower one the one that has the Russian coffee urn - forget the name.

    Rosie, It all went well, after I photographed, I found out they had a cd for sale?ha Good show.

    Jules, I've been accepted and rejected in many juried shows...accepted is much better! Thanks.


    Suki, The Art League puts on a good opening, generous with the snacks and music is always great. I really liked this show.

    Jeane, Thank you, the assemblages were spectacular...very creative and just well put together.

    Jo, It was great having these two accepted...I felt "seen". I always enjoy the making of art and the party business leaves me uneasy but this was good.

    Cynthia, Thank you. Pablo and I had the gallery to ourselves to photograph so it gave us a chance to really take our time.

    Robyn, Thank you...wouldn't that be fun...visiting shows here and there?!

    Martha, Thank you...it was a big show and I think the juror picked some beauties.

    Karen, Thank you...yes, the lower one was part of oasis series and there was a brass teapot..."Teapot Dreams".

    Diane, Thank you, it's a good show. Didn't you have an upcoming show?
