"Seeing Green: Environmentally Conscious Art" - New Exhibit
May's 1st Friday is a big one.
Just last evening I hung a show at the Stage 1 Gallery of the Albany Barn (46-48 N. Swan St., Albany). "Seeing Green: Environmentally Conscious Art" will feature seven pieces of mine, as well as works by four other artists. As you may know, all of my artwork is created from very small pieces of paper cut from celebrity gossip and fashion magazines, transforming the magazines into collages focused on the four natural elements and totem animals, that make a larger statement about how we live in our natural world and how we connect with each other. My art is dually environmentally conscious.
Three of my new pieces are on display; one is a triptych I created when I was away in Austin, TX for three weeks. The piece is called "The Path" and features five vultures, two hawks and a gryphon. Really, it's about purification, a movement away from a stage of innocence, through a self-awakening and on toward spiritual enlightenment. (A picture is below, but unfortunately it came out a bit blurry, so you'll really just have to get on out to the show.)
As I said in my last post, about fifteen of my pieces are currently on display at Mingle (540 Delaware Ave., Albany). Though I do not have new pieces there, likely there are pieces you have not seen, so I recommend getting out there, having drinks/dinner, and checking out some artwork. Support local business and local artists at the same time!

Craft Fairs and The Cheese Traveler
Today seems like a good day to post an update on what I've been doing, and will be doing, as far as artwork-selling events and venues are concerned...
Craft Fairs/Markets:
This summer was a great time selling my artwork at the Delmar Farmer's Market every Saturday! I've met some great, talented and like-minded people, and am glad to be part of this market. The Delmar Farmers Market is still going on, with local farm goods, artisan cheeses, baked goods, hand-crafts, artwork, and more! Every Saturday morning through Christmas, 9am-1pm, in the Bethlehem Central Middle School Cafeteria. A great place to get holiday items and support local business! www.delmarmarket.org
This Sunday I will also be at the Congregation Beth Emeth Winter Shopping Land craft fair, 9am-3pm. Should be good! www.bethemethalbany.org
Thanksgiving weekend I will be at Delmar on Saturday (11/24), but on Friday and Sunday (11/23 & 11/25), I will be at the Albany Institute of History and Art Holiday Gift Fair, which should be really fantastic. This will be my first time participating in this event, and I have heard nothing but good things about it. I highly recommend checking it out. http://www.albanyinstitute.
In December, I will begin a once-a-month winter craft market at the Albany Jewish Community Center, on Sunday, December 16th. Again, this will be my first time for this event (it's actually theirs, too!), and I'm excited to discover what it's like. http://www.saajcc.org/
The Cheese Traveler:
On an even more exciting note, my cards, prints, and other crafts can now be found in The Cheese Traveler shop at 540 Delaware Ave., next to All Good Bakers and Mingle. The new cheese, meat and specialty food shop is certain to wow you! The Cheese Traveler will be celebrating its Grand Opening with an event this Sunday, November 18th, from 1-6pm. The event will feature tastings of culinary delights by guest chefs, readings and music by local artists, and catering by Mingle, All Good Bakers, Fin, Tilldale Farm, The Cheese Traveler, and the Chef's Consortium. (You can check out The Cheese Traveler and the event on Facebook, too, and "Like" The Cheese Traveler while you're doing so!) www.thecheesetraveler.com
I hope you can make it out for one of these events, or all of them! Why not?
