Please join us for A Grand Affair (and the paintings are a grand or under...)

We're all totally excited at the gallery this week - one of our favorite shows, A Grand Affair, opens Friday night to the public at 6 p.m.

Amy Dixon's Be Mine sums it all up on Friday night...

What's all the fuss?  Well, first of all, you just can't argue with the concept of it:  the featured works in the show are all priced $1,000 and under. Our wonderful artists always come through with new works specifically painted for this show so the walls shine with innovative and creative work.

New HHFA artist Michelle Knox grabbed our attention with her sweet photography/mixed media pices like this one: Caught Ya, 18 x 18, $550

Second, we just love the vibe of this exhibit.  It always seems young, buzzy and lively and full of collectors who truly love art - and are over the moon to find little treasures by artists they know and follow.  And nothing delights us more than a little matching-making:  clients and great art equals happiness everywhere.

We can't imagine this not ending up with a delighted collector. Nancy Franke, A Touch of Lemon, 14 x 11, $950.00.

Laura Lloyd Fontaine is another new artist we're so happy to introduce and we're crazy about this piece: Dawn's Early Light, 20 x 30, $1,000

So, as of today, the gallery is a mess.  Paintings have been arriving on a daily and even hourly basis and we're frantically inputting, tagging and photographing. Tomorrow, we crank the music and hang the show.

We have our work cut out for us to get the gallery perfect by Friday night...but we'll get it done!

Behind the scenes...

Landcapes in waiting...or a pile o' paintings all waiting for their special spot on the walls.

By Friday, the gallery walls will be perfectly hung with dozens of new paintings (all under a grand!) and we're pretty sure that as you're strolling with a little glass of wine in your hand, you'll be as happy as we are.
See you this Friday from 6 -8 p.m.

Ta Ta...
