Reception at Redbrick Gallery!

Reception tomorrow!

Tomorrow, from 4-7 pm is the opening reception for my solo show, Abstract in Nature at Redbrick Gallery in Martinsburg. I'm excited and all ready to go! Except I still don't know what to wear- this is always a major challenge for me every time. Heels or flats? (I really really prefer flats for comfort.) Dress or skirt? Maybe pants? What about a nice pair of jeans? I never know. I'm just getting myself too worked up about it. Eh. Anyway, wish me luck (on the show and the picking out of outfit, I'm going to need it)!

Yay!

My marathon of dragging artwork around has ended! All of my paintings have been picked up from the last venue (although thankfully Jonathan and Leigh at Slingluff Gallery met me 1/2 way in Gettysburg, they really are awesome!). The exhibit is now in Martinsburg at Redbrick Gallery, which is such a nice place. Anyone that finds themselves in the area needs to stop in and check out Ms. Conrad's rotating exhibits. You can find mine, Abstract in Nature, up from May 21-June 25, 2011. The opening reception is this Saturday, May 21st from 4-7 pm.

How great is this sign? I was so excited when I saw it!

A few Gettysburg pics...

Clearly a picture of Honest Abe.

some guns and swords in a shop window...I think I'll pass, even if they are on sale.

New paintings tomorrow!

Etsy update

February 11th - Marion County. oil and acrylic on canvas. 9 x 12"

An update on my Etsy shop - I will be taking down most paintings from my shop on Sunday, March 27th due to my upcoming exhibition (the one I can't stop talking about!) at the Slingluff Gallery. They will be for sale through the gallery from April 2nd - May 1st, 2011. After that, most of the paintings will move on to Redbrick Gallery in Martinsburg, WV.

Exhibition Announcement

Last week was a strange but wonderful week. On my first official "painting" day, the first day where I was off from my day job (last Thursday), I received a phone call about an invitation for a solo exhibition at Redbrick Gallery in Martinsburg, WV! I was completely thrilled that:

1. I was able to take that call from the owner (and not have to play phone tag due to the day job hours!) and
2. I was able to accept the invitation for the solo exhibit, because I now have much more time to produce the work.

So I am very happy to announce that after the solo exhibition in April at the Slingluff Gallery, a revised version of that show will be on display May 21st - June 25th at Redbrick Gallery, with an opening reception Saturday, May 21st! I'm already feeling better about this decision...
