Nancy's Studio

Across the parking lot is another set of industrial buildings that house galleries and offices. Nancy Valle has part of her studio on the Anderson Arts Building (a floor above mine), part in a working print studio in town, and here next to my building. Sunday she celebrated the space, and threw a little party.
 

Printmaker / Painter / Collage Artist

Nancy Valle's sewn painted canvas piece is in the Arena Group's show at RIT's gallery. I kidded her about cutting up her painting and reconstructing -- only because that's what quilters would do. Then she mentioned she did this in a quilt class. Ha! If she wasn't so good, I could be mad.

 

Fireworks in Sydney

I've taken the finished work over to Vision 2020 at the Anderson Alley (Rochester, NY) studio room 404 for this month. The 60 works of portraits will open Friday night, I'll see you there.

A Visit with and Artist

While I was waiting for a book reading, I popped in to see Nancy Valle's studio. She is a ceramicist who starts with a large scale drawing before transferring to modest sized work in clay. I love the paintings for the shape and color. Kindred spirit, right?
