JULY RECEPTION NIGHT and ART WALK FRIDAY Tonight we started off with overcast skies that grew into an amazing evening of whispy fog winding it’s way between the boats in the harbor—so beautiful. It was a perfect night for our Reception Night and Anniversary Party. And we had wonderful attendance…both in artists attending and in customers buying our artwork. And Pat Newton and Sarah DeLong have received so many compliments from customers and artists about their amazing artwork all month long. Pat’s beautifully detailed oil paintings and Sarah’s color-moving-watercolors are so wonderful. We’ve had lots of feedback from all of our social media platforms on their artwork.

Pat and Sarah brought tons of wonderful chips and bean dips and cookies, cheeses and crackers and chocolate covered peanuts… and lots of yummy treats!

FEATURED ARTIST Lower Gallery: KIMBERLY HEMPEL FINE ART PAINTING Artists’ Statement: In Kimberly’s own words— “In my home studio, I work mostly with photo references to create oil paintings from my travels. When possible I work plein air to capture the mood of the light. I work from direct observation when possible and from photographic reference when the weather is inhospitable. Working from photographic references allows me to make a record of what I see and spend time in my studio translating that image on to the canvas. My current works feature still life in landscape, and explorations of interior settings as well.”
