Rustic Splendor - art sale at Sparta, NJ

Tonight is the opening party for the Hilltop Art Show, with wine and beer tastings, and fine food samples from local Inns and Cafes and of course a wealth of art from 50 artists to delight you as you nibble.

Wednesday morning's art delivered turned into a joyful surprise as I swooped along the graceful curves of Rt 15 surrounded by the ripening golden mountains - I am even looking forward to the return journey as the sun sets this evening, despite the prospect of Friday night traffic. Tickets for tonight's extravaganza are $60, but the art show is open for free for the rest of the weekend, so get you Foliage Fix this year with a wee trip to Sparta!

Are you sure the paint is dry?

Strawberry Crescent : oil on paper : 12x9"    SOLD — Strawberry Crescent : oil on paper : 12x9" SOLD

The paint on this wee still life study barely had time to dry before it was whisked away to a new home last Sunday. Would that the day had been slightly drier also!

A big "Thank you" to all who braved the elements- not so much the glorious fall sunshine as promised, but more the persistently moist mists of autumn. I think all my upcoming shows are indoors from now on!

Morristown Art Walk : Sunday 12-5pm

With over 70 artists this year there should be be able to find a little something to warm up your home this fall, and with only 13 venues you can easily see the whole show! I shall be at Kathryn Joseph Salon, 168 South Street (@corner of Elm), along with Mike Dziomba and Chris Siasat.

Venues are mostly along Elm and South Street, you can stroll along the avenue, taking in the art along with the great bakeries, restaurants and boutiques on the way. Then stop on the green to enjoy the first hints of autumnal red leaves with an afternoon snack. Maps are available at all the venues - or click to see venues pdf Morristown Art Walk Venues

First Fall Art Show this Sunday, Livingston NJ

As it was cold enough this morning for my heating to kick in, it seems the sun has finally set on summer. Sunglasses, scarf, gloves and coat required to walk the dog means it is most definitely fall.

And the Fall Art Shows are beginning this Sunday at the Livingston Oval in NJ. The show will co-inside with a town-wide picnic in celebration of Livingston's Bicentennial, so it should be a fun day.

Oh dear... there appear to be 5 shows looming in my calendar in the next month - must get cracking!

Time to put away my strappy sandals and pull on some work boots

Sunday, September 22nd 11-5pm Art at the Oval Town Green Robert H. Harp Drive Livingston, NJ
