With the End of April

…Comes the beginning of May!

April has been an active month for us at Hartshorn Studios!

lila and rob at expo

-Lila concluded her first solo exhibit with new insights and exciting prospects – it couldn’t have been a more rewarding experience! With half the show sold, she’s now cranking out a number of commission pieces and pulling out a summer palette of colors!

Best In Show

-Rob and Lila exhibited at Art Expo at the beginning of the month –and Rob won Best in Show! We made a number of great connections, met new artist friends (David Adshade, Jacquie Gouveia, Jordan Matter, and Dimitir Kaligos and his family – just to name a few!) and saw some really interesting and inspiring contemporary pieces.

-And with only a moment to catch our breath, we’re now getting ready for Art in Le Jardin, an outdoor event that will be held THIS FRIDAY during the May ArtWalk, May 9th, 2014. Fred is showcasing a series of new sculptures, accompanied by a number of summer-themed paintings by Rob and Lila. Pop on by and try something from the grill!

-With the smell of Spring in the air (even though we can’t feel it quite yet!) we’re getting excited about Tremont in the Summer! It’s spring cleaning: buffet Frank has been landscaping the outdoor spaces of the gallery, gardening, string lights, and we’re finding new ways to beautifying the gallery with some new paintings in progress, and flowers everywhere!
