Group Show This Weekend



I'm excited to be part of a 5-person show this weekend at a friend's historic farm in the Maryland countryside.  The stone walls and barnwood have turned out to be a great setting for the contemporary and abstract work.  I don't have photos of the work in place yet, but took some of the farm earlier this week.  I'm wondering if Jane and her family would notice if I move into the garden house....

Please come if you're in the area.

Participating artists: Jane Byron, Colleen Clapp, Liz Holm, C. Edward Ramsburg, Cristy Stup

I can see why you'd want to move in. I'd try to sneak in there too if I could!

What a BEAUTIFUL place! I could just imagine the paintings and inspiration that would come from there.

Fun photos too!
