Friends of Animals Utah at Gallery MAR
May 9th, 2013
Last night we were fortunate to host an event for the no-kill shelter local to Park City, Friends of Animals. Their shelter is where owner Maren Mullin was fortunate enough to find her own dog, Molly. They have a wonderful program, both in town and at a ranch out in Brown’s Canyon, and a supportive group of volunteers and fans. They care for and adopt cats, dogs, and even horses.
Buy the Art that You Love, courtesy of Houzz.com

This week’s blog is from Houzz.com and features the Pangea design firm out of Portland, Oregon. Artists get into a real tizzy about the subject of people looking for art-to-match-the-sofa. Coming from a background as an artist, I always encourage my interior design clients to select art first if they don’t have any so they feel free to buy what they love and not worry about what it goes with. And then we can plan the decor around the art.

Eyes are the window to the soul, so are our windows the eye of our soulful gallery? Absolutely.

Which is why we have hired Lynsey Jones Schlegel of OWD Design Studio as our new window display artist.

I have a small studio – it’s only 150 sq ft. This last week I completed the biggest painting I’ve ever done – a 60 x 40 inch megalith called Space In Between.

Picasso– Ultimate Influence
February 10th, 2013

Below, I have inserted two arts stories with the latest on the founder of Cubism. What do you think? Is Picasso the supreme creative figure of art history?
