Greetings Art Lovers!
I couldn't wait a month (for a change) to share some tips about where you'll want to shop for giftable art this holiday season. I also have some works on glass to show you as well as social media news. So, let's get started!
Do you love Pinterest like I do? So many great ideas to borrow and share. Since I am a member of the Conroe Art League, and am an old hand at building websites and creating social media pages, I offered to build a Pinterest page for the gallery. They accepted, so everyday I post one new artwork from the Madeley Fine Art Gallery. There are 3 collections, so far: Fine Art, Events and the brand new Artists and Art Lovers collection that I started this evening. Artists and Art Lovers is a collection wherein anyone can post a selfie or group photo taken within the gallery. Now I need your help to get the ball rolling! You can help in 2 ways:
1) Visit the Madeley Fine Art Gallery at 127 Simonton Street in Conroe, TX.
2) Take a selfie by yourself or with your friends next to your favorite artwork.
3) Post it here: https://www.pinterest.com/MadeleyFineArtGallery/
I have something fun planned in January for everyone that posts to the Artists and Art Lovers collection. Stay tuned for more info!

In other news...You might be surprised to know that years ago I made ceramics. (Yes, me.) Unfortunately, I didn't enjoy the process so I moved on. But, I still really like and appreciate ceramics and similar disciplines so recently I started creating original designs on glass. I'll show you a few I'm still working on and ask that you keep in mind that I have NO IDEA where I'm going with this (see below). Such is the way life goes when one is an artist. I have over 30 pieces, in varying stages of completion. Absolutely NONE of them is finished, yet. It's very primitive stuff. Let me know what you think about this experiment in the comments at the bottom of this post.
Did you know that November 26th is Artists Sunday? There is nothing more personal and appreciated that a gift of original artwork. Please remember artists and artisans when you are checking off your Christmas list. The lucky recipients of a one-of-a-kind artwork will be glad you did! I'll post a couple of gallery shopping events with dates, times and links below. Enjoy!
