The Season is Ripe

TheRipeArtGal and I got together and created fun, fabulous, festive windows for the Gallery's December celebration. For December through the first week in January, the Gallery will feature work by the very talented members of the Long Island Craft Guild, www.licg.org. Everyone is invited to the holiday party planned for the afternoon of December 9th where you can peruse the great art, meet the delightful artists, and be fortunate to acquire some lovely one of a kind gifts. You also get to eat snacks, so how can you not want to stop by?

Window is holding formal court for the holidays in one gallery window, while Lila in her snow princess finery is busy greeting guests in the other. Window and Lila are collaborative pieces that I worked on with A.D. Puchalski and Laura Galbraith, respectively. Window and Lila are both fully jointed fine art sculptures. Each is one of a kind. To see more of A.D.'s work, visit: www.angeldevilland.com. Rabbit lovers take heed: some of A.D.'s work is available for purchase at the Ripe Art Gallery. If you stop by the Gallery, you might remember to ask to see the pieces. Like A.D., Laura is also a highly skilled graphic artist. To experience some of Laura's work check out: www.lauragalbraith.com .

French beaded flowers lovers take note: a selection of 'doll-sized' beaded flower bouquets as well as 'people-sized' beaded candy canes were made by Jeanne for the Gallery. Jeanne's bead work is incredible. Not cheap, but amazingly lovely.

If you want cheap, take home a flamingo.
