"Chained"This month our friend and very talented artist Jennifer brought us some new things to offer to you good folks. Jennifer has been on Southwest Art's list of upcoming artists to watch. These are very powerful images. You need to come by the gallery and check them out!

Trekked into the wilds of San Antonio last night to check out some shows happening at Blue Star.  Pat Marince and Tyler Rutherford invited us out to take in their latest greatest work.  They have a small gallery space that they usually just open up on Sunday afternoons.  We highly recommend a visit if you enjoy good photography!  There's also a great exhibit up right now at the Blue Star Art Space.  There were about 5 artists featured - all contemporary painters - and all were very good.  My personal favorite is the work of Seth Alverson. Check out www.bluestarartspace.org for more info!

"Bluebird"Pleasant surprise today when Melanie Fain's smiling face came through the door. She's just home from her last road trip of the year and came by to drop off some of her newest etchings in a great series of songbirds - "Bluebird," "Goldfinch, and "Titmouse." She's the real deal.

Had a great Friday evening with old and new friends at the gallery.  Beall and Sarli from The Duck stopped in and introduced some new folks to the gallery. Jennifer came by to pick up her Versaggi acquisitions and especially admire the new work that painter Jennifer Balkan dropped off last week.  After hours, we headed over to The Boerne Grille to meet friends and give a listen to the great music.  Thumbs up Stewart!!
