Featured artist of the month is Kate Langdon. Wife, mother, grandmother, and watercolor artist.” I enjoy painting a variety of subjects, depending on what “feels right” at the moment. After painting for over thirty years, mostly for gift-giving, in the past few years I have begun painting several times a week, becoming more intrigued by color, light and movement…more aware and more appreciative of the world around us. My hope is to bring more of this awareness to all who view my work.”
Featured artists include metal sculptures and natural photography by Dave Walli, watercolor reflections from artist Clarence Fisher, and gorgeous jewelry by Pam Hecht and Gustavo Bourdiue. Holiday centerpieces adorned with antique elements are created for your holiday home.
