Impressions of New England at last

I was very proud and pleased to be notified that my larger piece - "Time After Time" has been accepted for the 2013 Bennington Center for the Arts "Impressions of New England" Juried Show.  This piece was challenging because of the large amount of detail, but also fun because all the objects have personal connections.  The clock cookie jar is the only thing my husband has from his mother's kitchen and the milk bottle is from the family farm on my side of the family.  The other bottles and packages are all from the old farmhouse I once lived in.  These things sit on my refrigerator top and catch the light so beautifully, as I tried to capture in this drawing.

The Bennington Center for the Arts is located at 44 Gypsy Lane, Bennington, Vermont 05201.  It is open daily from 10-5:00pm and closed on Tuesdays. Here is the link for further information.  http://thebennington.org/  Impressions of New England opens June 8 and runs until August 25.
