Opening Reception
9-6-2008


We held the reception despite a visit by tropical storm Hanna. Even though the poor weather discouraged some from attending the reception, we had a good group. Jennifer and I learned later that during the hours of the reception our local county was under a tornado warning. Still... people came to see the artworks and I had the opportunity to talk with them about the paintings. We had refreshments and good conversation. I was very pleased with my first solo exhibit.

Eleven works are exhibited at 'The Picture Framer / Gallery' throughout September. Because some of these paintings have previously been sold and one is on exhibition at the Mystic Art Center, I have a mix of originals and reproductions being displayed. The quality of the reproductions is so good that several visitors made comments that they could not tell the difference between the originals and the reproductions.
