The Art & Alzheimer's Project

Today I had the opportunity to speak about my art work with people with Alzheimer's and their caregivers. The event was created by Alzheimer's Services of Cape Cod and the Islands, and was sponsored in part by the Wellfleet Cultural Council. We met at Sandpiper Gallery for about an hour and a half. Susanne Faith facilitated the discussion. I showed several paintings, and we spoke about each of them in turn. We discussed the subject matter, the seasons and scenes depicted. We tslked about possible titles for the paintings. I spoke about pastels as a painting medium, and compared the different papers and types of pastels. They were a totally responsive group and had many observant comments. I had an absolutely inspiring time, and it was an honor to share my work with them!

V.A. C. Shows " Summer's Tapestry"

The Visual Artists' Cooperative has mounted a multi-media show at the Brewster Ladies' Library, 1822 Main Street, in Brewster Massachusetts, entitled "Summer's Tapestry".
Each artist in our group was asked to show 3 or 4 works.
The paintings I have on display at this show are: "Paddle-Out", "Newcomb Hollow Cliffs", both images that can be viewed on the website; and "Swans' Nocturne" which is better seen than photographed!
"Summer's Tapestry" will hang through June 23rd.
