Great Show Opening at Foyer Gallery

Thursday night was the opening reception of the show "Pure" at the Foyer Gallery of the Nepean Sportsplex.  The show featured the seven artists recently juried into the gallery as permanent members. I was very proud to be part of these seven. Several of my friends came to the opening to view the varied artwork and to show me their support. Thank you so much to all of you who came: your presence meant a lot to me!

The above picture was taken at the opening in front of my varnished watercolor, The Two Sisters. I am the second person from the left and am shown here with some dear friends.

The show continues until Sept. 11 and the gallery is open from Wed. to Sunday. ( check the times on their website).

    Christiane, your newest career is immensely successful. You can be proud of your accomplishments. I must read more about your varnishing technique. The painting really stands out.

    Gosh Christiane! your watercolor is just glowing in a dark! It does take the space and attracts all attention.
    Very very good job.
    Congratulations on the Art Show. I know how much work it takes to prepare.
    Cheers!
