College Hill Art Show



sold




It's the first annual College Hill Art Show. conveniently scheduled for the Saturday before mother's day (MAY 8 10am-2pm), conveniently located in the bustling business district at North Bend Rd and Hamilton Ave........behind College Hill Coffee Co., Schwartz, Bacalls and Marty's Hops and Vines (all sponsors of this event).


Tina , the owner of CHCC, (and so much more) is "curating" and if you've ever been in her coffee shop, you know she has great taste. She was selective in inviting artist's to join so my guess is the work will be high quality. Come and buy something for your mama....while enjoying good food, art and community!

new song for a new day

This painting is one in the series based on the photographs that Barry Carlin took in Ghana and Uganda. I was especially struck by the women that he depicted....always working, never resting, forever singing and dancing.

troth

30x30"
acrylic on canvas
There is always an enormous temptation in all of life to diddle around making itsy-bitsy friends and meals and journeys for itsy-bitsy years on end. It is so self-conscious, so apparently moral, simply to step aside from the gaps where the creeks and winds pour down, saying, I never merited this grace, quite rightly, and then to sulk along the rest of your days on the edge of rage. I won't have it. The world is wilder than that in all directions, more dangerous and bitter, more extravagant and bright. We are making hay when we should be making whoopee; we are raising tomatoes when we should be raising Cain, or Lazarus. Annie Dillard
