Last night, Saturday, August 29th, was the reception for “Transcending Reality”, the annual exhibit of the Abstract Artists’ Group of New England. It was a lovely reception – lots of conversation with both old friends and new acquaintances, live music by Barbara London and Rick Kress, lots of art to check out, fresh flowers as well as food & wine.
This is our largest show ever, with over 150 individual works of art by 20 artists. We even ended up with a small works wall containing lots of very affordable pieces of art 8” x 8” and even smaller. The exhibit will run through Saturday, September 5th at Newburyport Art Association, 56 Water Street, Newburyport, MA.
I’m always extremely proud of this show. Although we are not a juried group and we don’t jury the individual work, I still think that our shows are amongst the most interesting and the strongest exhibits at Newburyport Art Association.
You’ll find lots of color, lots of creativity, a variety of mediums and sizes. We have wooden sculpture, textile pieces, large oils, small oils, acrylics, collages, encaustic, mixed media, watercolor, pastels, and even mosaics. There are large pieces and small pieces and lots in between. And don’t forget to look for my mixed media collages while you’re there.
Here are a few of my pieces from the exhibit –
If you go to the exhibit, please let me know what you think.
