Maureen's goddess was fabulous...check out the shoulders and mid-section especially. |
Gorgeous clay by Lorene Lyons |
There were so many wonderful pieces, it was truly hours of looking and drooling. Were my camera skills only up to the challenge of photographing amidst the crowds that saw the show.
These are wonderful each one is so creative and so clever how kind of you to bring them together for your friends to enjoy.
ReplyDeleteWe're fortunate to have so many talented artists in the valley. For such a small community, it's astonishing!
DeleteWow..all these are so creative and amazing projects! I enjoyed to see you with your boxes - you look so nice and happy!
ReplyDeleteGreat event - super that you organized this!
Happy weekend !

Aren't they, Susi! And yes, I was delighted (mostly because I managed to finish the project in time... :D ).
DeleteWOW!! Wht clever and talented artists Win! Looks like the show was a knockout success! The imaginative pieces here are really mind blowing- so very cool!
ReplyDeletehugs,Jackie xx
I'm so totally in agreement with this Jackie...and it was a terrific success!
DeleteLooks like a fabulous art show, and nice to see the photo of you and your art :) Thanks for your kind words at my blog, we are heartbroken. Time heals fortunately xx
ReplyDeleteIt was awesome, Shirley, and great to be part of it. And you know I have a soft spot for all studio animals; I know how hard it is to see them go. xo
DeleteWow Win Dinn, thanks for the lovely art show!!! This is all amazing, good stuff!!! Love the picture of you too!!! This was so fun!!! hugs, patty
ReplyDeleteSo glad you enjoyed it Patty! It was wonderful fun all 'round!
DeleteThe show was an outstanding showcase of fun, creative works by our Creston Valley artists. Thanks for sharing some of the photo's here Win, glad to have been a part of it!
ReplyDeleteIt sure was, Laura, and I loved being part of it too - such talent there!
DeleteAre you kidding me? These works are phenomenal.
ReplyDeleteThe artists really responded to THIS show. Alison Masters' Madonna of the Discarded is absolutely astonishing. A vacuum cleaner AND a painting of it? WOW!
And I love the bounty of the womb of Maureen's goddess plus the "shawl" on her shoulders - simply brilliant.
Great to see a photo of yourself (and Laura Leader) with your terrific entries. Stunning - all of it.
I sure envy you gals the artistic community you live in.
Absolutely, Alice - I'm in full agreement. I do wish you'd been able to see it in person...hopefully that will happen the next time the Call & Response happens! xo
DeleteHi Win, you must have had a brilliant time such fabulous art work here. While I am here I will explain about the tax disc. In the UK we pay a road tax which used to be displayed on the car windscreen by means of a small coloured disc, these discs are not given to us anymore as the police are able to check that this has been paid on the internet but it has caused some problems as reminders are sent by post and sometimes they don't arrive or people have moved house and forget when it is due to be paid, the discs had the date on them when they should be renewed. Hope that explains what they are, Angela xXx
ReplyDeleteIt was a very creative time, Angela, and wonderful to show and see all the works that came out of the Call and Response. Thanks for the info on the tax discs - I can stop shaking my head in confusion now! :D
DeleteGracious - I had no idea there would be so much variety. This would be like going to an art museum Win. What an amazing gathering. I have never seen anything like it. Love yours and Laura's, of course but Andrea's made me laugh out loud - that's a HOOT!!! So is the vacuum. And that rooster is amazing. I so love reading/seeing your posts... this was INCREDIBLE!!! Xj.
ReplyDeleteTruly it was such an amazing show I'd be hard pressed to take nearly enough photos! I spent two full hours salivating over the lusciousness, Joi!
DeleteI love all the creative ways in which the artists used everyday objects. Blessings!
ReplyDeleteIt was really amazing to see what came out of the boxful of nothing - ideas turned into action, Arnoldo!
DeleteThis is truly thinking "outside of the box" and I am loving this process. Absolutely amazing art here!
ReplyDeleteI agree, Kay - from concept to final creations it was an astounding project on the parts of all the artists involved!
