AAEH Studio Tour 2010

NY — Sat, 03 Jul 2010 02:45:37 +0000

I will be opening the doors to my studio on July 8-10 in conjunction with the Artist Alliance Of the East End. They have been organizing studio tours in the Hamptons for the last 25 years.

Tickets should be purchased ahead of time through a number of local businesses. The complete list can be found here at the AAEH website. The ticket price is tax deductible and will help the Artist Alliance continue to support the Artists who live and work in The Hamptons.

The Members exhibit opened tonight, July 2, and will run through Sunday July 11 at 3:00pm at Ashawagh Hall in The Springs. The show offers a great opportunity to see the work of the membership and get a sneak peak at the work of the artists participating in the studio tours. More information is available here

Benson Keyes Gallery – Southampton NY

NY — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 03:54:35 +0000

Earlier in the summer I participated in a group show at the Benson Keyes Gallery in Southampton NY. I have worked with Kimberly many times over the years so I found the whole experience familiar. What was not familiar was the 4000 sq ft space with 30 ft high ceilings!

I wish I had a shot of the outside. The space is broken up into a few interior rooms which allows the art to be discovered as you travel through the gallery. That said I was happy to be front and center!

I had one more piece in the room behind the Bent Hall Table.
