Mannie and I Exhibiting our art at the Wellington Artists Gallery and Art Centre Show and Sale

One of the events that Mannie and I were juried into was the Art Show and Sale at the Wellington Artists Gallery and Art Centre.  Over a hundred entries and both Mannie and I got a piece in to the show.  And, on the day of the reception and opening for the show Mannie sold her piece to someone who saw mystical elements in her work.  The show is continuing on for the month.

The photos here do not give justice to the vibrancy of Mannie's embroidery in this work, to the branches intertwined into the work and the variety of techniques she used.  Painting with fabric, threads, beads and found objects is not easy.

Me I like the trees that wait stolidly and serenely for  spring to arrive.
