MOONLIGHT FLIGHTS

These pieces were made to give a refreshingly, cool winter feel to your day. Albeit, they also showcase the promise of spring-to-come and the beauty hidden just beyond the light of the moon (please, stop the madness) ...











Painted with Acrylics on Handmade Watercolor Paper.

FIRST On The CONCOURSE


For a couple of months during the summer, as you may know, i was graciously invited to showcase my art/craftwork (with Cynthia in tow) at the Empire State on the Plaza. I was back again but with the drop in temperature, i was moved inside to the Concourse (off of Madison). Three tables were set aside for me (2 for yours truly and one for Cynthia) but sadly, she was not able to make it and my assistant was a last minute no-show so i was there all by my lonesome.
I was in area that did not get much traffic and later found out that Fridays are usually slow. Besides, the annual tree-lighting ceremony is to take place tomorrow and i'm not invited to that event (boo hoo) and that's when the crowds will descend.
Didn't think it looked good having an empty table but i made the best of it and used both of mine to full capacity (one table had original and printed art and the other held jewelry):

























































































































I sold three pieces but only have a close-up of this particular choker that was a favorite of mine and the lady who purchased it for herself:



She also bought a bracelet for her daughter and another patron purchased a necklace.



This was my last official show of the year but i will be displaying/selling some of the work shown at the gallery. Plus, five of my Mixed Media Butterflies pieces were excepted into this month's exhibit ("Small Works").
Hope to see you there ...
