Gossip Lady video interview with Artist Amy Palmer

Amy Palmer talks about why she creates her work. What a great interview!~ Collectors of Amy Palmer or even if you have been following her work, this is a must see video!

Palmer is the artist known for paintings of moms in boxes, staring up from the depths with alien-like eyes — bored, horrified, bedraggled or defeated. Sometimes there's a kid on a hip, a cigarette butt hung from the lips, a coffee mug or other beverage gripped in hand.

Lines, Color with a Story

Here is a sneak peak into our illustration show, May 29th.

This will be one heck of a show. I will name drop later, about all the wonderful artists participating in this show.
Some even have illustrated for "Highlights for Children."

Tess Feltes is one of six illustrators featured in this show. Her illustrations are amazing and are as equal to fine art as any other painter. Here lines, color and foreshortening are spot on giving her subjects a human like personality. Her objective has been to regain a child's original fascination with beauty, combined with the accuracy of the scientific illustration. I was so blown away by her work that she is now part of our collection of fine artists.

Fine Drawings on Porcelain

Tim Christensen-Kirby has returned to the gallery after a major fire that destroyed his barn / studio 3yrs ago. Then after finding a new studio, a major flood came through destroying most of his tools forcing him to pull back from some of his galleries. Well, now he's back and in full swing with new pieces arriving early this spring.

His hand, as always has remained constant and extremely skilled. In each drawing he is creating a narrative about the times in which we live in, and the challenges of living in a world were we are divorced from the natural world around us.

We are pleased to have Christensen-Kirby back as part of our line up for 2009.
