Good Visions for SML Good Neighbors








GOOD VISIONS FOR SML GOOD NEIGHBORS
The artists of ArtVisions Gallery and Studios are hosting an exhibit of artworks during the last weekend of January as part of their vision to benefit SML Good Neighbors, Inc. 


Fifty percent of each artwork sold will be donated. Hours are 10am to 4pm on Saturday and Sunday, January 28 and 29, plus other hours that weekend by request.  Snow dates are February 4 and 5, 2017.  ArtVisions Gallery is located at 130 Scruggs Road, Suite 215 (By the Chicken), Moneta, VA 24121.  Easy parking is available in the upper level lot. 


Plans were already underway for their one year anniversary of a move from Burnt Chimney to Westlake, when members agreed to share their celebration with Good Neighbors. The show will feature fine art originals, prints, and note cards of fourteen local area members.  Their willingness to participate is in response to what Good Neighbors does for the Smith Mountain Lake community.


ArtVisions is also celebrating its 6th year.  Our members are: Rose Mary Atkins, Linda Atkinson, Whitney Brock, Nancy Rae Brown,  Marie Campbell, Rita Carroll, Julie English, Shelley Koopmann, Lana McCulloch, Lynne Ludovici, Barbara Moody, Jane Schafer, Nancy Stellhorn and Denise Swayne.

Paintings Delivered to Bedford Landings B&B

Today I delivered several paintings to Bedford Landings Bed & Breakfast to be displayed there for the next few months.  If you are out for a nice ride in the country stop in or book a room at this beautiful bed and breakfast.  It is located right on the runway of Smith Mountain Lake Airport.  Check out their blog:

Base Hit


10"x8"
Oil on Gessobord

Well I can't say my first painting of the year was inspired by the weather here in Virginia since I am snowed in with our first snow of the winter season.  However, there is plenty of time for the snow to inspire me because it usually takes days before our road gets plowed :-(  Anyway, spring training is only a little more than a month away so I am ready for it with a painting!
