Small town… Big talent…
February 24, 2010I live in a small town in northern Georgia, called Woodstock – but it’s filled with a lot of great talent. Some of the artists here sell their paintings internationally and I have the privilege of sharing gallery space with them. One of the galleries here in Woodstock, is called Roomscapes Gallery and Heartworks Studio.
They are tucked in a shopping center back behind the old train station that has been converted into the Right Wing Cafe on Main Street in downtown Woodstock (their official address is 390 Chambers Street, Woodstock, GA 30189).
In the front – is a space filled with beautiful works of art, paintings, prints, jewelry, pottery, climbing the walls up to the lofty ceilings. In the back you can sometimes hear laughter of fellow artists as they are creating new pieces of art. Sharing techniques, stories of their families, and local news.
If you are ever in the area, please make it a point to drop by and take a look. Especially try to make it by March 5th. The theme will be Friday Night Live there will be Mardi Gras on Main Street, the art featured in the gallery will be Black & White and there will be a fundraiser for The Big Read.
One of my black and white pieces featured in this show is shown below:
Great painting! wonderful splash of color complimenting the black and white.
