Excellent Time!


We had an excellent time at the gallery stroll last weekend. There were the skateboards at the Terra Nova Gallery with Joe Flores doing airbrush demonstrations, The Quilts at the Community Church, Conrad Nebbeker is back and had paintings on display and there were big paintings at the Waggenry Gallery. The Windowbox Gallery has some very nice art with quite a nember of guests. The Health and Justice Building featured BYU Illustrators Group painting and lovely harp music and the Covey Center blew me away with the metal Sculpture of Tim Little. All this art will be around for the next month and you really ought to see it if you can.

Restaurants were open, a change from the past and I plan to eat downtown next month during the stroll!

February Art Stroll

We're really stoked about the Downtown Art Stroll tommorrow. The Health and Justice building is featuring the BYU illustrators group. There is some really good art hanging in that show.

The skateboard show at the Terra Nova gallery has been held over for another month. The skateboard art is just inspiring. Many of the artists have added a piece or two this month, so it's even better. Joe Flores, the inspiration behind the show will be on hand demonstrating air brush techniques.

Terra Nova Gallery had a live demonstration at their studio during the November Art Stroll. It was fascinating and I wish I had gotten a picture of the nearly finished piece at the end of the evening, it was very good!

The whole atmosphere of the stroll was upbeat and charged with excitement. At each of the galleries, there were pockets of visitors who wanted to stay and mingle. The photography at Angels Of Philly was notable, as was the art on display at The Windbox Gallery, who have decorated for Christmas already.

We had fun and look forward to next month.

October Downtown Art Chase


The weather was perfect for the art chase last night. At the end of the evening, there were so few folks that turned in entries for the prizes, that those who did will have a high chance of winning. The art was great.

David at the Terra Nova Gallery was open early and ready for visitors. He had water with his own label and art triva on it.

Painted Temple folks were getting ready for the show, Jeanne and I were dropping off stroll information and didn't take the time to see their art work, thinking we would get back and then missing them.

The small art of two women were featured at Rowley press and one couldn't help but be impressed.

The Provo Community Church had quite a lot of art, a really good showing and the refreshments that they prepared was especially geared towards kids. They also had some coloring pages that participants could decorate.

Muse Music had art that was similar to last month.

Juice N Java were scheduled to have a digital photographer on display, his work wasn't there when we visited, but the art piece on the card was.

B.Ashworth's was a first timer participant and a no show so we won't be asking them to participate again.

Perfectly Suited was also a first time participant. He had a couple of art pieces on display.

Bon Bons left up the art from last month and also featured some unique pottery for the chase.

Flower Basket Boutique had some very small items that were interesting.

Angels Of Philley were first time participants and were very excited to be participating. Well done displays, they should prove to be a good place to see the art each month.

The Windowbox Gallery had very nice displays. We enjoyed the featured paintings.

Utah County Art Gallery had their yearly digital art show on display. About half the number of entrys were received as last year, but oh they are worth seeing! The musical entertainment was also quite good.

The Covey Center For The Arts had three artists. The gallery was filled with sound as visitors used mallets to strike the bells that a metal sculptor had on display.
